How To Win At Online Poker Consistently

I am a member of a regular Friday night poker game, and just like most friendly games, the dealer rotates from player to player for every hand, and the dealer gets to choose his game. My favorite? A game known as "Texas Push".

The concept of the game is To make a five card hand (one down card and four up cards, similar to five card stud) at which the maximum hand and the lowest (worst) hand split the pot.

The game starts with each Player getting one down card. The first player then receives an up card. The player has the choice of keeping the card, or passing it to another player. If the player keeps the card, then the next player receives an up card and the exact same option. If the player passes the card, then the next player then also has the exact same option and so on throughout the players. In every case, there's a charge to passing a card. After a player keeps a card, the other previous players are "filled in", they get a card that they don't have any option except to keep. This process continues, with betting on every completed round, until all of the players have 5 cards in total. Once all the players have 5 cards (and the betting is finished), the players are then asked to "declare". A coin in their hands means they're announcing for the "high" hand, without a coin means the "low" hand. The highest and lowest hand for each declaration split the entire pot.

The plan of this game Is to use the ability to pass cards to develop either a low or high hand. Poker players will know what the high hands will be - typically three of a kind, a straight, or a flush is going to be a winning hand. For the low hand, the ultimate will be 6, 4, 3, 2, Ace where they're not in suit (a flush or straight cannot be utilized as a low hand).

It is a fun, tactical game That is always a hit at our weekly poker game. Further Information resources.
