Stud - 8 players but only 52 cards in the deck, everyone to river?
 

This is an oddball question but nags at me everytime I sit to play a stud SnG.

What does the software do if all 8 players stay to the river? There aren't enough cards in the deck for all 8 players to get a card on the end - what happens?

They deal a community card.

I don't know if all sites do this or not, but they should turn one card face up in the middle and that is used as a community card.

I've only seen it once ever online but the community card mentioned above was dealt.

Of course, I probably should have looked for some general Stud rules to begin with to find that out - of course the software would behave the same as live play.

Thanks guys. I r dumb.

Normally I don't play draw, but if you find a table with everybody drawing 5 cards, I don't care how the software handles it, could you please let us know where it is?

I thought in most 5 card draw games you were only allowed to draw 4 maximum?

This is more likely to happen in triple draw. The rule would be the trash is reshuffled. Now if that is what the softwares would do who knows. I would think so. No way you can just void a hand cause you ran out of cards.

UB's software even says "reshuffling deck" and then gives u the card.
