How to Play:
Anaconda
Description:
Anaconda Poker is a variant of Seven Card Stud where players can pass unwanted cards to their neighbors. Here’s how it works:
Basic Rules:
- Each player is dealt seven cards, three face down and four face up.
- Players review their cards and decide which three cards to pass to the player on their left (or right, depending on the variation).
- After passing cards, players then choose five cards from the 7 they now hold to make their best poker hand.
- Betting rounds follow the standard Seven Card Stud structure: after the initial deal, and after each subsequent card is dealt face up.
- The player with the best five-card hand at the showdown wins the pot.
Example:
In a game of Anaconda Poker, Player A passes their three highest cards to Player B. Player B passes their three highest cards to Player C, and so on.
Players then select the best combination of five cards from the eight they now have, based on traditional poker hand rankings.
