The goal of each player is to win the pot, which contains all the bets that the players have made 🍌 in any one deal. A player makes a bet in hopes that they have the best pot, which to give 🍌 the impression that they do. In most Poker versions, the top combination of five cards is the best hand.

The Deal

Each 🍌 player receives two cards face down and then one card face up, dealt one at a time in rotation.

The Play

After 🍌 the initial deal, there is a betting interval. Each active player receives three more face up cards and one more 🍌 face down card, with a betting interval after each round of cards dealt. In the showdown, each player turns up 🍌 all of their hole cards and selects five of their seven cards as their hand. The player must separate these 🍌 cards from the other two, which they discard. The player cannot reclaim their discards upon finding that a better five-card 🍌 combination could have been made.
