Blind

Not a true Stud game, but too difficult to categorize anywhere else. Played with seven cards, or more commonly with five cards, all cards will be dealt face-down as in Draw Poker, but all cards will be dealt one at a time, as in Stud Poker. All betting rounds are opened by the player to the dealer’s left. The dealer deals one card face-down to each player, followed by a betting round, followed by a second card to each player, followed by a betting round, and so on.

If a betting round ensues each card dealt, then there will be five betting rounds with five cards, and seven betting rounds with seven cards. The dealer who calls this game may choose to only start the betting after each player has been dealt 2-3 cards, especially with seven cards.
