Default Re: Stud questions

[ QUOTE ]
When playing Stud, are you required to maintain the order in which your up-cards are dealt to you, or can you mix them up?

Yes. Intentionally changing the order of your board cards is considered cheating. If someone asks the order of your board cards (b/c of sloppy dealing procedures or you not straightening your cards as dealt or even b/c of confusion), you should tell them the order.

Also, at showdown, if someone asks which card you got on the river, are you required to reveal this, or can you also mix up the order of your down cards?

It's perfectly fine to lie about your starting hand and whether you rivered your final holding. It's also fine to brush off these questions.

As for your last question, I'm not sure (except for the fact that I know a community card is used if the dealer runs out of cards). In my 6 or so years playing stud, I've never even seen this situation occur - must be a good game.
