Hi, my name is Dean Hale and today I'm going
to teach you how to play Five Card Stud poker.
In Five Card Stud poker, you have an initial
ante, and then a player is dealt the card
down and then the next card would be up. They
then decide whether they would want to continue
to bet or to fold their hand. If you're playing
in a group where you have say five or six
players, you have what you have call a bring
in bet. The bring in bet would be half of
what thee initial ante is, and thee player
that has thee lowest showing face up card
is the one that has to do the bring in bets.
This is not a choice. You actually have to
have the bring in bet. It it it is it is a
requirement. Then every player would have
thee option of calling the bring in bet or
raising it to thee original ante. Then, as
as you as you go along, the cards would be
dealt again, face up. And what you're doing
is the the disguise is you're thee only one
that knows what you're bottom card is. The
betting would go around in in a similar fashion
until all five cards are dealt. You would
then conclude the game by after the final
bet, turning over your whole card to show
the cards you have. You will then use your
your basic poker rankings of high card, pairs,
two of a kind, three of a kind, and so on
to decide who has the best hand. So, the the
main thing in Five Card Stud poker is most
of your cards are up showing. Your only deception
is that bottom card. So if you're going to
bluff, bluff well. My name is Dean Hale, good
luck at the tables.
