5-Card Draw for 6 Players
Also called Draw Poker for High. This is the basic form of draw poker, and by far the most popular. Each player is dealt five cards face down. There is a betting round and then each player in turn may discard and replace up to three cards with the goal of improving his hand. There is another betting round and then the showdown, in which the highest poker hand wins. You'll usually need at least two pairs to win.

5-Card Draw, Joker's Wild
This is a variation of the most popular form of draw poker. There is one joker in the deck, and it is fully wild. Each player is dealt five cards face down. There is a betting round and then each player in turn may discard and replace any of his cards with the goal of improving his hand. There is another betting round and then the showdown, in which the highest poker hand wins. With the presence of the joker, most pots are won by two pairs or three-of-a-kind.

Acepots
This is five-card draw with an opening requirement similar to Jackpots. The deck includes one joker, which can represent any card. Five cards are dealt face down to each player. There is a betting round, but a player must have at least a pair of aces to place the first bet. If no one opens the betting round, the deal is passed out as follows: The dealer collects everyone's cards but leaves their antes in the pot. The deck is shuffled, each player antes again and the game is redealt with the same opening requirement. This process repeats until someone bets with at least two aces. After the first betting round, each player may replace any of his five cards with new ones dealt from the deck. There is a final betting round, followed by the showdown in which the best high hand wins the pot. The average winning hand is three-of-a-kind, but remember that the player who opened was dealt at least two aces!

All For One or One For All
Start this with five cards down to each player. Bet. Each player, starting to the dealer's left and continuing clockwise, may choose to either draw one more card or trade in all his cards for an equal number of replacements. Rounds of betting and drawing/exchanging continue, the leader rotating each time, until there are fewer cards in the deck than players left in the game. The winner is the one with the high hand.

Draw with a Widow
This game is a five card draw variation. After each player is dealt five cards, two cards are dealt face down. After each player discards and bets the widow cards are turned over one at a time, each followed by a round of betting.

Kings and Little Man
Basic five card draw rules apply,(4 dis-cards w/ an ACE). Kings and the lowest card in your hand are wild. 5 of a kind beats a royal flush. Good Luck!

Straight Draw Poker
This is basic 5-Card Draw, only checking is not allowed. Five cards are dealt face down to each player. There is a betting round, in which the first player to the dealer's left must either bet or drop out of the pot. Each active player may then discard and replace up to all five of his cards from the deck. There is a final betting round played "pass and out," where checking again is not allowed. The highest hand in the showdown wins, which is usually two pairs or better.
