Basic 7 card stud, with the caveat that if the queen of spades comes as
an up card to any player, the hand is over. All cards are thrown in, the
money remains in the pot, and the game is dealt again. Any player who
dropped before the queen of spades showed up on the board cannot come
back in and is out until the game is complete.
The game continues in this way until either the queen of spades does not
come face up or until all players but one drop out of the hand. If more
than one player remains, the winner (high hand) splits the pot with the
high spade in the hole (Ace is high).
One variant has everyone at the table re-ante every time the queen comes
and the hand must be re-dealt. |
