Poker Rules: 7 Card Stud

In This Page:

Until the last few years when Texas Hold’em took its crown as the most popular poker game, 7-card stud was the best known and most popular. The staple of most weekly games between friends, part of its appeal is due to the flexibility of the different forms the game can take by designating wild cards in a hand. It’s easy to understand and unlike Hold’em and Omaha, there are no community cards. In 7-card stud your cards are yours and yours alone. On line and in casino stud ring games, wild cards are not allowed, so it’s a straightforward, easy to understand game which makes it appealing to beginners. It’s readily available on line in ring games and single table sit and go formats, but finding a multi-table sit & go tournament for stud can be a bit tough but not impossible. If one is out there, rest assured you’ll find it at Pokerschedule.com

The Ante

To get the pot started, all players must post an “ante”, which is like buying admission into the hand. All players post an equal amount regardless of their position. It is usually a small amount, about half or one-third of the single bet limit. Once the antes are posted it’s time for:

The Deal

Three cards are dealt to each player. The first two are fact down and known as “hole” cards. The third is face up and is know as the “door” card. Now we move onto:

The Bring In and the First Round of Betting

Whichever player has the lowest value card showing now has to post another bet, usually twice the ante, called the “bring-in”, which is mandatory. If two players tie with the lowest card, the player who “brings in” is decided by suit in alphabetical order. So it’s clubs, diamonds, hearts, then spades with the suit closer to the front of the alphabet responsible for the first act. This player has two options, either just to bring in the minimum amount or “complete” the bet by wagering the full amount of the maximum bet. Betting continues with the player to the left of the “bring in”, either matching the previous bet, raising, or folding. This continues around the table until all players have acted. The hand proceeds to:

Fourth Street

Everyone still in the hand gets another card face up. At this point and for the rest of the hand, the highest hand showing starts the betting. This player can only bet the low limit, for example $1 in a $1/$2 stakes game, unless there is a pair showing in which case the high limit, here $2, is the maximum allowed. The action is completed around the table. Raises are restricted to whatever the bet limit is at the time, and now it’s time for:

Fifth Street

Remaining players get another face up card and again the highest hand starts the betting. It is at this point where the betting limits go up to the high limit, regardless of whether an exposed pair is on the table. It climbs to $2 in a $1/$2 stakes game. The raise limit also goes up to $2 and both remain at that level for the rest of the hand. Betting action is completed around the table. It’s getting expensive to stay in and now we’ll see:

Sixth Street

This is identical to Fifth Street, except players receive their sixth card, the last face up card they will get in the hand. If you are still in the hand you’d best have something by now or a chance at drawing something really good because here comes:

Seventh Street aka The River

Those players who’ve gutted it out and remain in the hand receive their final card. This one is face down. The final round of betting starts with the leading exposed hand at the high limit and continues until all bets and/or raises are called, and then it’s time to see who wins the pot. Drum roll please, it’s time for:

The Showdown

The best five-card hand held by the remaining players wins the pot. In the rare case that there is a tie, the pot is split equally. The dealer position (the button) moves one spot to the left and the next hand begins.

Great piece!
I primarily play Hold 'Em, but Seven Card Stud would have to be my second favorite game. It translates well online, but it's also a spectacular choice for home games. I like that you've clearly defined the rules here -- in particular, outlining the betting rounds. A lot of amateur players tend to get confused when it comes to the rules of betting. I think this is a great article that will lend itself to much use!
