Seven Card Stud

In seven card stud, each player is dealt a total of seven cards and uses five of those cards to make the best possible poker hand.  

After the initial deal when every player has 1 card showing, the person with the lowest card must "bring in", which means he must place the amount of the low limit bet size in the pot. If two or more players share the lowest card, the card of the lower suit will "bring in". This is a forced bet and counts as your bet for the initial round.

Betting Rounds
There are five rounds of betting. In fixed limit seven card stud, all bets and raises must be equal to either the low limit, or high limit bet size, depending on what round it is. In the first two rounds, all bets and raises must be equal to the low limit bet size. In the third, fourth, and fifth rounds, all bets must be equal to the high limit bet size. If, for example, you're playing 1-2 seven card stud, all bets in the first two rounds will be in increments of 1 dollar, and all bets in the last three rounds will be in increments of 2 dollars. A maximum of 3 raises are allowed per betting round.  

Third street - Two cards are dealt face down to every player, followed by another card face up. The player with the lowest card must bring in, by betting the low limit bet. Play proceeds clockwise around the table, with each player choosing to fold, call, or raise. All bets and raises must be equal to the low limit bet size.
