Stud Poker
In stud poker, depending upon which type is being played, the dealer passes out the cards either face down or face up. Stud used to be played with either three or five cards but it is only five cards now. This division of poker dates back to the 1700’s when 3-card stud was popular. In five-card stud, the players bet after the face down cards have been dealt. After each of the last three cards is dealt, another bet is made. The fifth street, or the last card to be dealt, which is the fifth card, is laid out and the final round of betting is made.
