How to play: 5 Card Stud

The classic poker game 5 card stud poker is one of the oldest poker games.

The rules are quite simple...
The players are dealt one card face down (the hold card) and one card up (the up or door card).
Players then have a betting round before the dealer gives out a new up card.
Once all players have 5 cards each there is a final round of betting and the player with the highest hand wins the pot.

5 card stud was invented way back in the 1850s, but it is still enjoyed by a large number of players. 5 card stud is relaively simple in comparison with some of the other poker derivatives which is attractive to new poker players.
And 5 card stud is a great introduction into the world of 7 card stud. :)
