eight times seven is fifty-six. that is more cards than in a standard deck. so what happens if all eight players on sixth street want to see river? hard to believe that in the history of poker this never happen once

It's super rare, BUT, on such an occasion, you deal a community river card.

LOL. It has been so long since this was last asked. Shows how dead 7stud is.

I have been playing online 7stud since 2003. I have had one shared river card in that time. It is that rare. I think it may have been 2c/4c 7stud. Something like that.

This came up in our game the other day. When we play stud8 we play 9 handed, but for stud hi we seat 9 but have a button where a player sits out (it is good because there is often a player up eating/going to the bathroom, etc. It keeps the game full). Anyway, we were just playing stud hi but the dealer forgot to utilize the button and was dealing 9 players in for a few hands. She has two card left in the deck at 7th street, one burn and one community. The community card was a King - the question was then asked: does the player with open kings start the action? The ruling (which I believe was correct) was the high hand on 6th street starts first.

I would be interested to hear the reasoning. I would have had the high hand showing bet first. The high hand would have been the open kings.

My hand happened so long ago I cannot remember what site it was on and what rule they used to determine who was first to act.

Just to be clear, the "open kings" was a player with a king on their board and the king community card. Without using the community card they wouldn't have been first to act. As I said, the player with the highest board on 6th street was made first to act.

This is what I assumed.

For me that makes open kings and the guy with the King on his board should be first to bet as he now has the highest open hand. But your game chose differently.

Thanks for the reply.

The sixth street betting lead definitely goes first

So that's what we did, but I'm not sure that's correct. Do you have a good source for this? #15 of Robert's Rules says that the new high hand leads, Cardplayer.com seems to use the same text to explain the rule.

My gut reaction at the time was that the 6th street high hand lead, but the small amount of information out there said otherwise.

This is such a rare situation there may not be an industry standard.

Also, poker has no regulatory body unlike Contract Bridge so who decides, decides.
