Pass the Trash Draw Poker / Anaconda Poker
In Pass the Trash Draw Poker (also called Anaconda poker) seven cards are dealt to each poker player. Before the first
betting round, each player examines his poker hand, and removes
exactly three cards from his hand and places them on the
table to his left. After each person has thus
discarded, each player picks up the cards discarded by his
right-hand neighbor and places them in his poker hand (thus, each
player will have given three cards to his left-hand
neighbor). It is important that each player discard
before looking at the cards he is to receive.
After the first pass, there is a betting round. Then a
second pass occurs, each poker player passing two cards to his
right. A second betting round is followed by a third
pass, each player passing one card to his left.
Finally, a fourth betting round and a showdown, in which the
player with the best five-card high poker hand he can make out of
the seven cards in his hand wins the pot.
In some truly silly Pass the Trash poker games, the showdown is replaced by a
rollout phase, as described in Shotgun Poker. This
makes a total of eight betting rounds in the
poker game, which generally destroys any chance for skillful play in the later rounds.
