Who's the dealer is a card game which is based on the community card poker variations, although it is not a strategy game. It can be played with at least two players and requires a standard deck of 52 playing cards.

How to play

[edit]

All the players are dealt two cards (in two rounds of one card at a time), starting from the player left from the dealer. The cards are dealt open in front of the players, so everybody can see all the dealt cards. Next, the dealer burns one card and then put three cards from the deck open on the table (the flop), burns one more card and turns one more card open (the turn), burns one more and turns one more open on the table (the river). These five open cards are the community cards. The dealing process is exactly the same as in the poker variant Texas Hold 'em, but the game lacks the betting rounds.

Rankings

[edit]

When all the cards are dealt the player with the highest hand wins the playing round and may decide who is the dealer for the next playing round. Regular poker hand rankings apply, and everybody can use all the community cards on the table to make combinations. The player with the second highest hand gains immunity and can not be choosen as the dealer by the winner.

Special rules

[edit]

Currently, the special rule Queen/Two wins the game is widely accepted in Who's the dealer. There are some other special rules which are less consistantly used, depending on what the players agree on before they start playing.

  • Queen/Two wins the game If a player is dealed the combination Queen/Two as hole (or pocket) cards, whatever the suit of the cards, the player immediately wins the playing round (although the other players might finish playing to decide who gains immunity).
  • Queen/Two makes a new rule In the above situation, the player with Queen/Two also makes a new rule. This can be anything, and most of the times, if a player breaks or forgets this rule, the player automatically becomes the dealer for the next round. An example of a new rule: The winner of the playing round has to stand up when announcing which player the new dealer is. So, if the winner forgets this, this player will be the new dealer.
  • Other winner privileges There are some variaties known, in where the winner of the playing round has more privileges (on top of deciding who the next dealer will be). An example of an extra privilege: the winner of the playing round decides who serves a new round of drinks to all the players.

Calling the federation

[edit]

If there is any dispute during the game, any player is allowed to call the federation. Doing this involves a simple voting round among all the players, in the form of raising hands, to decide on the conflict. If the voting ends in a draw, a round of Who's the dealer is played between the two groups of voters, in which the winning group decides on the dispute.

History

[edit]

The game originated in Bogota (Colombia) and since gained popularity mostly in Colombia France and The Netherlands. It was first played mostly as a faster substitute for the popular Texas Hold 'em poker variation, because it doesn't involve betting rounds. In the very beginning, however, a round of the game was sometimes played for a small stake, which could be small objects as lighters or small money in the form of coins. Then, the winner of the playing round wins the stakes.
