PLAYERS: 3-5

Jack the Shifter

PLAYERS: 3-7

INITIAL DEAL: 2 cards down and one card up to each player

PLAY: Normal seven card stud until a Jack is turned face-up. The player with the Jack may then name any 7 card stud game, and the rest of the hand is played out as that game. If another Jack is turned up, the owner of that Jack may name a different stud game, and so forth. The game named must be an accepted, named game within your poker circle-- no calling "6's wild" when you've got a pair of sixes (unless, of course, your group routinely plays a sixes wild game). A face-down Jack may be turned up at any time, at which point that player names a game. To prevent timing conflicts, before the final round of betting the dealer should ask each player, in turn, if they wish to reveal a jack, starting with the player with the best hand showing and proceeding clockwise. Any player who declines to show a Jack when asked at this time forfeits the ability to do so for the rest of the hand.

WINNER: High hand, unless changed by the game called.

Kings and Little Ones

NUMBER OF PLAYERS: 3-10

INITIAL DEAL: 5 down to each player

PLAY: As in 5 card draw, but after the draw there is no further betting. Instead, each player clockwise (starting to the dealer's left) declares whether he's in or out. If nobody stays in but the dealer, everyone in turn gets another chance to stay in. Players who stay in compare hands. Losers pay the amount of the pot to the winner. If only one player stays in, he takes the pot and the game ends. Otherwise the pot stays and the deal rotates. Kings are wild, as are all cards of the lowest rank in your hand.

WINNER: High hand
