Another popular poker game played at home games is called five card stud. Just like five card draw, each player receives five cards, but in five card stud, they do not get to discard. Also, in five card stud, three of the cards are face up on the board so that other players at the table can see them. Let's see how five card studs is dealt out. The dealer will first deal one card face down to each player. The next card will come face up to each player. And this is the first of three cards that will come face up. Once these cards are dealt up, the betting round will start, and the betting round will start with the worst hand of the table, in this case being the five of clubs. Once the betting round is over, the dealer will then deal one card face up to each player. This gives them three of their five cards and the best hand will start the betting round. This player with a pair of kings will start the betting round. Once that betting round is over, the third, and final, card will come face up to each player to give them four cards. Again, the betting round will start with the best hand. Right here we have the pair of kings, with an eight kicker, starting the betting. The last card will come down to each player giving their five cards. This is followed by a betting round starting with the best hand, and at the end of the betting round the players will show their hands and the best five card hand will win the pot. And that's how five card studs is played.
