Equipment:

1. a deck of 52 cards
2. dealer button
3. small blind button
4. big blind button
   
   

Setup:

1. A minimum of 2 players and a maximum of 8 players.
2. Have everyone randomly pick out a card and the highest card is the dealer and has the dealer button in front, the second highest card is the small blind (which sits to the left of the dealer and has the small blind button in front), the third highest card is the big blind (which sits to the left of the small blind and has the big blind button in front), the fourth highest card sits to the left of the big blind, etc.
   
   

Game Flow:

1. The small blind player and the big blind player submit their corresponding blinds.
2. The Dealer deals the card starting from the left. The small blind gets the first card and the cards get dealt clockwise. Each player gets 3 cards. The first card is dealt faced down and the next 2 are dealt faced up.
3. The player with the lowest exposed card is forced to make a wager either half of the small blind or the full small blind. Players take turn betting in a clockwise fashion.
4. After the betting round is complete, the dealer deals the players who did not fold 1 card faced up.
5. The player with the highest hand showing is the first to act and can either fold or bet. Players take turn betting in a clockwise fashion.
6. After the betting round is complete, the dealer deals the players who did not fold 1 card faced up.
7. The player with the highest hand showing is the first to act and can either fold or bet. Players take turn betting in a clockwise fashion.
8. After the betting round is complete, the dealer deals the players who did not fold 1 card faced up.
9. The player with the highest hand showing is the first to act and can either fold or bet. Players take turn betting in a clockwise fashion.
10. After the betting round is complete, the dealer deals the players who did not fold 1 card faced down.
11. The player with the highest hand showing is the first to act and can either fold or bet. Players take turn betting in a clockwise fashion.
12. The players who did not fold compete for the pot. The player with the best 5 card hand (this is a combination of EXACTLY 5 out of the 7 cards the players have) wins the pot.
    
    

Additional:

1. If 8 people are still remaining on the final cards (in step 10 above), 1 final card is dealt faced up and is shared among the 8 players. Continue with step 11 and 12 there after.
2. The player with the best 5 card hand for high wins half the pot. And the player with the best hand for low wins the other half. If there are identical hands, the high and low shares of the pot will be divided equally between the best hands. If there are no hand that for low, the best hand wins the entire pot.
