How to Play
5-Card Draw is the classic kitchen-table game — the one most people picture when they think “poker.” Each player gets five cards face-down, all private. After a betting round you get one draw: discard up to three cards and take fresh ones to improve your hand. A final betting round follows, then the best five-card hand wins. Everyone antes $1; bets and raises are a flat $1, capped at three raises per round.
🎴Five cards, one draw. Swap up to three cards a single time to improve your hand.
🤫Nothing's showing. No up-cards — read the betting and how many cards each player draws.
🤝Cleanest game to learn. $1 ante and $1 limit; perfect for a first round.
A hand, step by step
- Ante. Each of the four players antes $1, so the pot starts at $4.
- The deal. Five cards face-down to each player. Only you can see your own cards.
- First betting round. Starting left of the dealer, players bet, call, raise, or fold — flat $1 bets, max three raises.
- The draw. In turn, each remaining player discards 0–3 cards and is dealt the same number of replacements.
- Second betting round. One more $1 round after the draw.
- Showdown. Remaining players reveal. Best five-card hand wins the pot.
