The card game of poker has many variations, most of which were created in the United States in the mid-1900s. The standard order of play applies to most of these games, but to fully specify a poker game requires details about which hand values are used, the number of betting rounds, and exactly what cards are dealt and what other actions are taken between rounds. Prices listed are the Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Prices for base models. Options such as color are available at additional cost. Prices exclude tax, title, licensing, registration fees, destination charges, added accessories, and additional dealer charges, if any, and are subject to change.

The card game of poker has many variations, most of which were created in the United States in the mid-1900s. The standard order of play applies to most of these games, but to fully specify a poker game requires details about which hand values are used, the number of betting rounds, and exactly what cards are dealt and what other actions are taken between rounds.
Popular poker variants[edit]
The three most popular poker variants are spread in casinos and poker rooms worldwide and can be divided into the following groups:
- Draw poker: Games in which players are dealt a complete hand, hidden, and then improve it by replacing cards. The most common of these is five-card draw.
- Stud poker: Games in which each player receives a combination of face-up cards and face-down cards in multiple betting rounds. The most common of these are five-card stud and seven-card stud. These two variants are further played in other different formats.
- Community card poker: Games in which each player's incomplete hidden hand is combined with shared face-up cards. The most common of these are Texas hold 'em and Omaha hold 'em.
Here are more common rule variations:
- Lowball: The lowest hand wins the pot. There are different rules about whether or not aces count as low, and the effects of straights and flushes. The most common variants are Razz and 2-7 Triple Draw
- High-low split: the highest and lowest hands split the pot. Generally there is a qualifier for the low hand. For example, the low hand must have 5 cards with ranks of 8 or less. In most high-low games the usual rank of poker hands is observed, so that an unsuited broken straight (7-5-4-3-2) wins low (see Morehead, Official Rules of Card Games). In a variant, based on Lowball, where only the low hand wins, a straight or a flush does not matter for a low hand. So the best low hand is 5-4-3-2-A, suited or not.
- Players can pass cards to each other. An example of this would be Anaconda.
- Kill game: When a fixed limit game is played and a player wins two pots in a row, the stakes are doubled. In some split-pot games, a player winning both halves of the pot may also cause a kill. In some variants of Lowball, a player may choose to kill by placing a double bet after seeing his first two cards.
- Wild cards are added. This can range from simply making deuces wild to the 7-card stud variant named baseball.
- A twist round in which players can buy another card from the deck. If a player does not like the purchased card, the player can purchase another one by adding money to the pot. This is sometimes called a 'tittle.'
- A stripped deck may be used. Poker was first played with only 20 cards. In the spirit of poker history, players will sometimes only play with a stripped deck. A popular poker game in Spain is played with cards 8-A. It is played similar to hold'em, except that one card is dealt at a time and a player must use both hole cards.
- Roll your own is played in stud games, and allows the player to determine which of his or her cards are turned up and visible to the other players. In a game like Seven-card Stud, the 'roll' action only applies to the first 3 cards, all of which are dealt face down. Each player then determines which card to expose. Play then continues as with regular Seven-card Stud. But a game like Mexican stud applies the roll option throughout the game. Two cards are dealt face down, and the players roll one card up. The game continues just as in Five-card Stud, except the cards are dealt face down, and each player then decides which of the two down cards is exposed.[1]
Mixed poker games[edit]
Poker can be played in a mixed game format, for example one half-hour of Texas hold 'em followed by one half-hour of Seven-card stud. There are many types of mixed poker games. The most notable mixed poker variation is H.O.R.S.E. poker. H.O.R.S.E. is a mix of Texas hold 'em, Omaha high-low, Razz, Seven-card stud and Seven-card stud Eight-or-better. Each game will usually be played for a fixed number of hands or time and then the players will move on to the next game.
Other mixed games include:
- H.O.S.E. – same as H.O.R.S.E., except without Razz.
- H.O.E. – same as H.O.R.S.E, except no Razz or Seven-card stud.
- H.O. – Texas hold 'em and Omaha high-low
- O.E. – Omaha high-low and Seven-card Stud Eight or better.
- H.A. – Pot limit Texas hold 'em and pot limit Omaha.
- Omaha High-low Mixed – Fixed limit Omaha and pot limit Omaha high-low
- Holdem Mixed – Fixed limit and no limit Texas hold 'em.
- Eight Game Mix – Fixed limit 2-7 Triple Draw, fixed limit Texas hold 'em, fixed limit Omaha Hi-Low Eight or better, Razz, fixed limit Seven-card stud, fixed limit Seven-card stud Hi-Low eight or better, no limit Texas hold 'em and pot limit Omaha.
- Ten Game Mix (introduced at 2011 World Series of Poker) – No limit Hold'em, fixed limit Seven-card Razz, fixed limit Hold'em, fixed limit Badugi, fixed limit Seven-card Stud, no limit 2-7 Single Draw, fixed limit Omaha Hi-Low eight or better, pot limit Omaha, fixed limit 2-7 Triple Draw and fixed limit Seven-card stud Hi-Low eight or better (played with 6 players on a table).
Specific poker variant games[edit]
Some poker games don't fit neatly into the above categories, and some have features of more than one of these categories. These variants are most often played in home games, usually as part of a dealer's choice format.
High Chicago or Low Chicago[edit]
Either of these two versions can be played in any stud high game. In High Chicago, or sometimes simply called Chicago, the player with the highest spade face down (referred to as in the hole) receives half the pot. In Low Chicago, the player with the lowest spade in the hole receives half of the pot, with the A♠ being the lowest. If the player with the highest hand also has the highest/lowest spade in the hole, then that player receives the entire pot - having won both sides of the bet.
Follow the Queen[edit]
This 7-card stud game uses a wild-card designated as whichever card is immediately dealt (exposed, or face-up) after any queen previously dealt (exposed). In the event that the final card dealt (exposed) is itself a queen, then all queens are wild. If no queens are dealt (exposed), then there are no wilds for that hand. Betting is the same as in normal 7-card stud games. Follow the Queen is a typical game variant in Dealer's Choice poker games.[2][3]
Countdown[edit]
In this 5-card game, the dealer gives each player 5 cards face down. After the first round of betting, each player may choose to replace zero to three cards. A second round of betting follows and then players may opt to replace zero to two cards. Upon completing another round of betting, each player may replace one card of the cards in their hand. After a final round of betting, any remaining players show their hands, and the highest 5 card hand wins. The cost of cards doubles each round. For example, if the dealer says each replacement card costs $10 in the first round, then each card costs $20 in the second round, and $40 in the final round. When players purchase cards to replace ones in their hand, they put the cost of the cards in the pot.[4]
This game will only work with 4 players (or fewer) otherwise you will run out of cards.
Billabong and Shanghai[edit]
Just as Oxford stud is a mixed stud/community card version of Texas hold 'em, Billabong is a mixed version of Manila. Each player is dealt two down-cards and one up-card. Low up-card starts the betting with a Bring-in if you are playing with one, otherwise high card starts the betting. Next, two community cards are dealt, followed by a second betting round, beginning with the player with the best exposed partial poker hand (counting the community cards, as in Oxford stud). Then a third community card is dealt, followed by a third betting round. Finally a fourth community card is dealt, followed by a fourth betting round and showdown. Each player plays the best five-card hand he can make from the three in his hand plus the four on the board in any combination.
Shanghai is the same game with an extra hole card, but no more than two hole cards play. That is, the game begins with each player being dealt three down-cards and one up-card; each player must discard one of his hole cards at some point during the game as determined ahead of time. The most common variation is to discard immediately as in Pineapple; the second most common is to discard just before showdown as in Tahoe.
Guts[edit]
Guts is a family of games that are cousins of poker rather than poker variants. They usually involve hands of 3 or fewer cards, ranked similarly to hands in poker, and multiple successive rounds of betting each of which consist of the decision to be 'in' or 'out', and each with its own showdown. The losers of rounds of guts generally match or double the pot, which grows rapidly.
Five-O poker[edit]
Five-O Poker is a heads-up poker variant in which both players must play five hands of five cards simultaneously. Four of the five cards in each hand are face-up. Once all five hands are down, there is a single round of betting. The winner is determined by matching each hand to the corresponding hand of the opponent. The player with the stronger poker hand in three (or more) out of the five columns, wins, unless a player folds on a bet that was made. If a player beats their opponent with all five hands, this is called a 'Five-O' win.
Chinese poker[edit]
Chinese poker is a 2-4 player poker game with thirteen cards. The idea is to make three poker hands with increasing rank : two with five cards and one with three cards. If one of the hands does not adhere to increasing rank (i.e. is mis-set), the hand is declared dead and results in some sort of penalty.
Kuhn poker[edit]
Kuhn poker, using a three card deck, is more of game theory problem than an actual game people play, but it can be played by two players.[5]

(Briscola Rules!)
(Scopa means broom or sweep in Italian. The object of the game is to sweep, or clean, the table of cards)
Just a few words about cards that are important, specifically to this Italian card game of Scopa.
In left to right order of the cards below they are: Sette Bello. Pretty Seven. The seven of money. Everyone wants this. The top card in the deck. Worth seven.
Next is the ‘Fante of Coppe. Fante means soldier(infantry), but it is also like infante (infant, kid) so I always spell it ‘fante. Could be just me. N.B. nota bene. Pay attention well here. He is standing, but has NO crown. Worth eight.
Then we have Cavallo (horse) or he can be called Cavaliere (knight, cavalier) of Spades. He's easiest to spot of the 'vestiti' what with the horse and all. Worth nine.
Finally, da king. In this case, the king of clubs. NB pointy hat! If it has a crown on its head its worth 10 when you are counting
NOTE: these cards are all the classic 'Napoletanne' (ie: from Naples) cards. There are regional versions that are different in every part of Italy. The cards may look different, but they are equal when it comes to playing the various games. In some regions the fante may be a femail figure and be called 'Donna'. Still worth eight points whether called fante or donna.
Ok, lets go.
PLAYING THE GAME- Shuffle and deal out four cards in a square (two side by side, two below them) face up in center of table.
- Deal each player 3 cards. 2,3 or 4 players works out fine. Four is traditional and then the two people opposite each other are in squadra (teams)
- Player to dealer's left goes first putting down one single card form his/her hand. A card must leave your hand every time it is your turn. Only one. But one every hand. Pick up card/cards from the table equal to points on a card in your hand. That is a trick you have won. Set your card and the card/cards that match it you have taken from the table face down in front of you. Make a line out of these overlapped tricks as you win them. It is beneficial to get as many cards as possible and to get 7s. IF YOU DO NOT MAKE A MATCH, YOU MUST STILL PUT DOWN A SINGLE CARD!
- BUT, if for example, you play a king from your hand and there is a king on the board you must take it even if there would be, again for example, a three of money and a tasty setto bello. Sorry, it the rule, pecatto. If an equal count is available you must take it before taking multiple cards.
- When all three original cards are gone from all players' hands, dealer deals three more cards apiece. This goes on until there are no cards in anyone's hands.
- During Play — Scopa! In addition to trying to get money (aren't we all?) sevens, and especially sette bello — you are always scheming how to 'sweep' the table clean. Take all the cards. If you do, that is 'scopa' and you take that trick and put it in line with your others, but face UP. Kind of to rub it in with other players and to remind you to count it later. The next player then obviously to play has no chance of making a point that hand. Nice going. (note: there is a bit of art in making sure you don't leave convenient potential scopas out there for the next guy. Tricky business.
- Last player to win a trick in a game gets cards left on table at end of game. This is often a big deal and game decider.

SCORING. THIS IS THE CRAZY PART. BUT, FUN. SEEMS TOTALLY BIZZARE AT FIRST AND STRANGELY NATURAL SHORTLY THEREAFTER.
- SCOPA: one point for every trick where you swept the table
- CARTE: number of cards. One point for the person/team that has the highest total number of cards.
- DENARI: The gold coin money cards. One point for person/team with the most money cards
- SETTE BELLO: one point for having this card in hand
- PREMIERA: one point for whoever has the most sevens, usually. You are taking the highest card you have, one from each suit.
Sevens count the most 4 x 7 = 28 which is the max, so if you have all the sevens its easy, you get the point for
premiera. If you have 2 sevens and 2 sixes and I do too, it's a tie (pari par-ee) and nobody gets a point. Too bad.
But often BECAUSE THERE MUST BE ONE CARD FROM EACH SUIT, one player will have 2 sevens and 2 sixes and the other
will only be able to come up with 2 sevens and 2 fives for example. Sevens are best. They count, wait for it … 7
points. Sixes count six. See a pattern forming? Wait again! Aces are 5 and one half, 5.5 points. Strange, but true.
This 5.5 points for aces don't fly everywhere. This is a rule taught to us by our friend Pepe from Calabria. Face
cards count nothing.
Someone must get a point in a hand if nothing other than from sette bello. This is the only guaranteed point in
the game. All the others can result in Pari (tie). Since there is only one sette bello someone gets something.
Scores can get going pretty good if the scopas start falling into play.
Ok, play to some pre-agreed upon number of points and enjoy.
IN BOCCA AL LUPO! In the wolf's mouth is how they say Good Luck!
REGIONAL VARIATIONS Jan 20, 2001: Playing with our friend Anna from Vicenza we noted how very different
her Veneto (region around Venice) cards look. Tall and skinny and totally different. All the cards I've seen in Italy
are 'Dal Negro' brand from Treviso a couple miles from her town. Veneto cards are
very twisted and hard to tell Clubs from Spades. They have one card the fante
di spade (8pt card) that they affectionately refer to as 'la veccia' the old lady. No points or anything but gets
mentioned everytime it comes up.
RE BELLO. They also give a point for the 'pretty king' the king of money.

the game. All the others can result in Pari (tie). Since there is only one sette bello someone gets something.
Scores can get going pretty good if the scopas start falling into play.
Ok, play to some pre-agreed upon number of points and enjoy.
IN BOCCA AL LUPO! In the wolf's mouth is how they say Good Luck!
REGIONAL VARIATIONS Jan 20, 2001: Playing with our friend Anna from Vicenza we noted how very different
her Veneto (region around Venice) cards look. Tall and skinny and totally different. All the cards I've seen in Italy
are 'Dal Negro' brand from Treviso a couple miles from her town. Veneto cards are
very twisted and hard to tell Clubs from Spades. They have one card the fante
di spade (8pt card) that they affectionately refer to as 'la veccia' the old lady. No points or anything but gets
mentioned everytime it comes up.
RE BELLO. They also give a point for the 'pretty king' the king of money.

SCOPA CON ASSO MANGIA TUTTO. OK, this is fun too. Never seen or heard of this. She plays Scopa and she also plays
this variation as sort of a second version 'Scopa with aces eating everything' In this variant, if you have an ace
in your hand, you can clean the board with that ace. No scopa points but you can get a boat load of fancy points and
then the person next to you has to put down a card and your partner has a fine chance to actually scopa. Fun twist. There is also a game popular with very young people called ASSO PIGLIZ TUTTO.
