Six Card Stud Poker

These are the Six Card Stud Poker rules.  Six Card Stud Poker is usually played identical to seven card stud poker games, except that the last face-up poker betting round is removed (thus it is two down, three up, one down).  Six Card Stud Poker games can also be played as 1-4-1, where the first poker betting round occurs after only two cards are dealt (one down and one up).  This latter form more closely resembles a five card stud poker game with an extra down card.

A poker rule variation on Six Card Stud Poker called Alligator Stud Poker starts with one hole card and one up card, followed by a first poker betting betting round; then two up cards are dealt to each poker player followed by a second poker betting round; then a fourth up card and poker betting round, and finally a fifth up card and poker betting round.  This poker game plays well at no limit and pot limit.  The same poker game, but with each poker player initially dealt two down cards and one up card, and restricted to using only one of his down cards in his final poker hand, is called Zanetti Stud Poker.
