In 7 Card Stud, there are no community cards — each player gets seven cards and makes the best five-card hand through multiple betting rounds. There are five betting rounds and the cards are dealt face down and face up as follows: (1) down, down, up (2) up (3) up (4) up (5) down.
Notes:
It's common to deal the last card face up by mistake. If you do it to one then you need to do it to all of them.
If someone folds when not facing a bet, they still receive cards until a bet is made.
If you have 8 players and everyone stays in, you will run out of cards, so you will have to deal a community card on 7th street.
