| This is the most popular member of the Baseball family of dealer's choice
games. Seven-card stud is played with all threes and nines wild. When a
three is dealt face up, the player must either match the pot or drop. When
a four is dealt face up, the dealer immediately gives that player an
additional face-up card. With eight wild cards and the ability to have
more than seven cards in your hand, you'll need at least four-of-a-kind to
win this game. |
| This variation of Baseball is five-card stud played with all threes and nines

to have more than five cards in your hand, you'll need at least a straight
to win this game. |

| In one of the most popular wild-card variations of poker, this is five-card
draw played with all twos wild. Each player is dealt five cards face down.
After a betting round, each active player may discard and replace any of
his cards from the deck. There is a final betting round, and then the high
hand wins the showdown. Since there are four wild cards in the deck, it's
a good idea to fold if you don't have any deuces (unless, of course, you've
got a natural cinch hand). Look for at least three-of-a-kind to win most
pots. |
| Named after the popular soft drink whose logo encouraged us to indulge at ten,
two and four o'clock, this member of the Baseball family is seven-card stud
