One card is dealt face-down to each player, followed by one card face-up to each player. A betting round ensues, opened by the player with the highest card showing. Another card is dealt face-up to each player, followed by another betting round opened by the player with the best hand showing. This continues until each player has one card face-down, four cards face-up, and there have been four betting rounds. Best hand wins.
