HOLLYWOOD

Stud/Community Hybrid · Blinds · 2 Down + 1 Up Individual · 5 Community Cards

Overview

Hollywood blends stud and community card poker. Each player receives 3 individual cards (2 face-down, 1 face-up) and shares a 5-card community board dealt in three streets (Flop/Turn/River). Your final hand is the best 5-card combination drawn from any of your 8 available cards (3 individual + 5 community) — no restrictions on how many of each you use.

Watch a Sample Hand

Hero holds three private Aces; P2 holds three private Kings. A fourth Ace and King appear in the community, giving both players Four of a Kind. P3 uses zero individual cards to make Broadway. Hero's Four Aces wins!

Hand Construction

KEY RULE: Use any combination of your 3 individual cards and the 5 community cards to make the best 5-card hand. Unlike Omaha, there is no restriction — you can use 0, 1, 2, or all 3 individual cards alongside 5, 4, 3, 2, or 0 community cards.

Dealing Order

  1. Two private cards dealt face-down to each player
  2. One private card dealt face-up (the upcard) — visible to all
  3. Betting round (SB acts first)
  4. Flop: 3 community cards dealt face-up → Betting (SB first)
  5. Turn: 1 community card face-up → Betting (BB first)
  6. River: 1 community card face-up → Betting (BB first) → Showdown
