How to Make a Full House in Seven Card Stud Poker

Video Transcript

"Hello! My name is Taylor Honkofsky and on behalf of expertvillage.com, we're talking about 7 card stud and we're going to talk about a full house now. You get your 2 cards and your 1 card up. You take a look your cards. Wow, this is a monster starting hand. You have three 8s. So you already have 3 of a kind. It's a very good hand. You want to be raising right of way. Next card is a queen. Doesn't really help your chances right now, doesn't really help your hand. Just know if you do have another queen, you have a pretty unbeatable hand; it'll be a full house. The card comes off a 4. You're still working with the three 8s really. These cards don't really seem much. Here comes the next one. It's a 7. Not a lot of help. You’re still working with the three 8s. Most of the time you're good with just that, and then the river comes and the river is a queen. You do have a full house, which is 3 of the same card and 2 of the same card. So right now you have 8s over queens for a full house. I'm going to put my money with this hand every time. If you get beat with a full house, you just got really unlucky. That's all there is to it. You're really not going to lose too often with a full house, especially in 7 card stud. This is a very strong hand and this is a full house. Thank you for watching. "
