The game proceeds in the clockwise direction and each player is dealt five cards face down. Once all players receive their cards, the first round of betting takes place. The game begins with the player on the dealer’s left by announcing how many cards he would like to throw away from his hand and receive other cards. The dealer then deals the cards accordingly. There are also some exceptions to this. If a player chooses to discard all of their five cards, then the dealer will only deal four cards at once and the fifth card is dealt after cards are given to all the other players.

Once the players receive new cards, then the second round of betting begins. The game continues until two of these instances occur:

• All players have folded and only one player remains in the game
• Players have completed their third round of betting as well

There are several rules that 2-7 Triple Draw poker game has and here are a few:

• Poker hands are counted based on the highest card that a player has
• Having a straight lessens the value of your hand and an ace card is only used as a high card
• Any two players who have the same hand are supposed to split the pot
