5 Card Draw

Categories:  Poker

5 Card Draw was at one time the best known form of poker, with it featuring in many a Hollywood Western. It has since been surpassed in popularity by Texas Hold’em. Allowing just one round of changes the temptation to change no cards just for fun can be costly!

Rules

The classic form of the game of poker. You get dealt five cards, there is a betting round, you may discard and draw once to improve your hand after which there is a second betting round and then the showdown.
