The
poker variant follow the queen is regularly played as a
seven-card stud hand with the following variants (though of course any rule variations are up to the
dealer in
house rules). Players play through a
seven-card stud hand with matching betting but
wild cards are determined during play. Whenever a queen is dealt face-up the next card dealt is wild and all cards matching it become wild. Therefore if a queen is dealt to player 3 then player 4 gets dealt a
6: all sixes become wild. If a queen is dealt after a queen then all queens become wild PLUS whatever the next card is again.
Some play where queens are wild from the start and if the last card dealt face-up is a queen then ONLY queens are wild.
This game results in choppy
pot sizes and works better as you approach maximum players for your game. If you are not a fan of games with wilds then this will severely throw off your playing style. I’m guessing
San Francisco poker players don’t mind wilds seeing as this is quite a popular poker game there.
