How to Play: 2-7 – 21
Click to watch our tutorial on YouTube!
Description: 2-7 / 21 is a split pay game where you get dealt 5 cards and can draw as many cards as you like up to 3 draws. The 2-7 part plays just like normal Deuce to Seven. The 21 part is the total of ALL 5 of your cards. The player who is closest to 21 WITHOUT GOING OVER 21 wins. Face cards are worth ZERO, 10s are worth 10 and aces can be used as 1 or 11 (some variations they can only be used as 1). If more than one player has a total of 21 the player with the FEWEST FACE CARDS wins. So a player with 2 face cards and 3 others that total 21 would lose to a player with 1 face card and the other 4 totaling 21 and so on.
Game Type: Triple Draw
Split Game: Yes
Cards Dealt: 5
Max Players: 7
