Not constrained by obscure California law, home games generally do not play blind stud, though some of the games are challenging and well-balanced, including some of those previously offered by California cardrooms. Some of them got very creative with blind stud games, so they could offer players some variety. For example, a club in the Sacramento suburbs used to offer a seven-card high-low split blind stud game which was played 3-2-1-1 (four rounds; three cards dealt on the first, two on the second, then one and one), with two jokers in the deck acting as bugs?, and with the double-ace flush rule. |
