Mannheim Hold 'em / Hold 'em Stud

2-10* players

I - Hole Cards:
Each player is dealt THREE cards face down.
Everyone drops one of his cards.
(* if you play with 10 players, Dealer just gets 2 cards [without dropping one of them])
--> 1st bet round (we usually have a small blind limit)

II - The Flop:
Each player is dealt ONE card face down and
ONE comunity card is dealt in the middle of the table.
Now the 1st player face up one of his cards and bet (fold or check), then the 2nd players ......
--> this is the 2nd bet round (we usually have a big blind limit)

III - The Turn:
Each player is dealt ONE card face down and
ONE comunity Card is dealt in the middle of the table.
Now the 1st player face up another one of his cards and bet (fold or check), then the 2nd players ......
--> this is the 3rd bet round (we usually have a small blind and big blind limit)

at this time everyone (who still is in the game) has 2 holecards plus 2 cards faced up;
in the middle of the table there are 2 comunity cards

IV - The River:
The last (and 3rd) comunity card is dealt.
--> last bet round (we usually play no limit)
