Anaconda
Players:
4-7.
Initial deal:
7 cards are dealt down to each player.
Play:
Each player passes three cards to the player on their left after the first round of betting. After the next betting round, each player passes two cards to the player on their left. After another betting round, each player passes one card to the player on their left. Each player then chooses five cards to keep and discards the remaining two. Each player who chooses to remain in the hand places their 5-card hand face down in front of them. Play continues with a roll and a betting round until each player has rolled four cards, after which time a showdown ensues. The cards speak for themselves.
Winner:
The high and low hands split the pot.
Standard variations:
1: The cards are passed to the player on the right.
2: Each player keeps all seven cards after the passing and chooses among all seven cards to turn up. This allows the player to more easily change from high to low depending on what is being played (or to declare both).

Thanks for the info, sounds like a game worth trying. Similar to some other games with the passing of the cards, though this is a little different with the stages of betting.

Is it played much for money or is it more a bar-room variation?
