Players are dealt one card face down (the hole card) and one card face up (the up or door card).

Players then have a betting round before the dealer gives out a new up card.

Once players have 5 cards 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 relatively simple in comparison with some of the other poker derivatives, which is attractive to players new to poker. 5 Card Stud is an excellent introduction to the world of 7 card stud.
