The majority of Poker games use five
cards to define the winning hand. In a fifty-two card
deck, the amount of different hands that it is possible
to receive is a staggering 2.6 miliion.
In seven-card stud, there is a better chance of more
players receiving hands worth betting on than there
is in draw. Choosing ones five card hand from among
a greater number of cards not only gives a psychological
advantage of higher ranked cards to play with, but also
of preserving probabilities for improving hands that
are not currently good enough to win.
This means that more players can legitimately stay
in the hand in the early rounds to see the cards in
later rounds, and this will increase the size of the
pot and lead to a larger number of contested hands.
