While it features most Texas Holdem rules and very similar gameplay, it is actually quite a different game. You can get in a lot of trouble if you fail to identify these distinctions, so make sure to understand the main differences:

  • The game is played with 36 cards instead of 52 card deck (2s through 5s are removed) 
  • It uses a bit different hand rankings, where flush beats the full-house
  • Ace can play as a low card and form a straight – “A 6 7 8 9“

There are some variations with slightly different rules, but this is set as an industry-standard, so we will concentrate on the most common version. 

All these small changes make the game much faster and encourage the action, which is probably the main reason why it is growing in popularity among various players throughout the world. 

THE GAME PLAY

In Short Deck, just like in Texas Holdem, every player receives two hole cards, and all of the betting rounds are identical in these versions. That being said, the main difference is how the blinds are set-up in the first place.

While the “button” is still in play, there are no small or big blinds. The game starts by every player putting a set amount into the pot that is called “ante,” and the player on the button puts double of that amount.

When the hand starts, all the action continues clockwise from the button, and every player can fold, call button’s ante or raise. When preflop play is completed, the hand continues from the first position to the left of the button and moves clockwise on all following streets.
