THIRD CARD WILD
1. Before dealing any cards, the dealer announces “No Peek”
which simply means that the players will not look at any of the
seven cards which will be dealt to them. If a player
inadvertently looks at any of the cards, that player is
disqualified from the hand and forfeits the ante.
2. Play begins with the first player to the dealer’s left, turning up a
card then making a bet or checking. All other players follow in
rotation until that betting round is over.
3. The next player turns up a card, if it is higher than the previous
player’s card, a bet is made. If it is not higher, that player will
continue turning up cards until the previous hand is beaten.
4. Play continues in this manner. Each player on their turn MUST
keep turning up their cards until the previous hand is beaten.
Each time a new high hand is created, it is followed by a bet.
5. In turning up their cards, the players will eventually get to their
third card. This card is their wild card and will result in that
player having at least one pair, or perhaps three of a kind. The
wild card is set apart from the first two cards.
6. Play continues one player at a time until there are only two
players remaining in the hand. At this point, no further betting
takes place.
7. After the final player reveals his/her last card, the winner of the
hand is declared.
NOTE: If while turning up cards, the player turns up a card that
matches their wild card, it is also wild and should be set aside with the
first wild card.
