Set up. Each player begins with a number of chips to bet with and 2 private dice that are not shared with the other players. These private dice may be rolled in a dice cup to conceal them or they may be concealed by hand. There are also 5 community dice. A player is designated as the initial Dealer Either by random roll or position at the table.

The order of the letters is: "H" is the highest, followed by "O", followed by "L", "D", "E", and then with "M" as the lowest valued.

Ante Up.  Each Player contributes to seeding the pot with chips. The size of the ante is agreed to prior to the game. The ante may grow as the game progresses.

Player Private Rolls. Each Player rolls two dice and keeps the result hidden from the other Players. These dice are used in conjunction with the community dice to form a hand for scoring purposes.

Initial Betting. Starting with the Player to the left of the Dealer, Each Player places a bet. The bet choices are:

  • Check - a bet to stay in the hand, but does not put any money into the pot (only possible if the Player has contributed to the pot the size of the current bet, or is the first player),

  • Bet (the minimum allowed bet),

  • Raise (increase the current bet by at least a specified size, the maximum raised bet may be limited, if playing Limit Holdem),

  • Fold (surrender the hand), and

  • All In (a bet or raise consisting of all of a Player’s chips).

  • Players continue betting by repeatedly going around the table until all have Passed consecutively or only one Player remains.

Flop Roll Dice. Roll three community dice publicly. All players assess the best combination of their private dice and the three rolled community dice.

Flop Bet. Starting with the first Player to the left of the Dealer who remains in the game, each player places a bet based on their two private and three community dice. The choices are: Check (only if no Players have made any bet except a Check), Bet (the minimum allowed size bet), Raise (increase the minimum bet by at least a specified size, the maximum raised bet may be limited, if playing Limit Holdem), Fold (surrender the hand), and All in (a bet or raise consisting of all of a Player’s chips). Players continue betting until all have Passed consecutively or only one Player remains.

Turn Die Roll. Roll one more community die. All players assess the best combination of their private dice and the 4 community dice.

Turn Bet. Starting with the first Player to the left of the Dealer who remains in the game, each player places a bet. The choices are: Check (only if no Players have made any bet except a Check), Bet (the minimum allowed size bet), Raise (increase the minimum bet by at least a specified size, the maximum raised bet may be limited, if playing Limit Holdem), Fold (surrender the hand), and All in (a bet or raise consisting of all of a Player’s chips). Players continue betting until all have Passed consecutively or only one Player remains.

River Die Roll. Roll the last community die. All players assess the best combination of their private dice and the 5 community dice.

River Bet. Starting with the first Player to the left of the Dealer who remains in the game, each player places a final bet. The choices are: Check (only if no Players have made any bet except a Check), Bet (the minimum allowed size bet, Raise (increase the minimum bet by at least a specified size, the maximum raised bet may be limited, if playing Limit Holdem), Fold (surrender the hand), and All in (a bet or raise consisting of all of a Player’s chips).

Players continue betting until all have Passed consecutively or only one Player remains.

Winning. If only one player remains, that person wins and claims the pot. Otherwise, players reveal their private dice, and the best hand of the remaining players wins and they receive all the money or chips in the pot. If there is a tie for best hand, the pot is split between the winners.

The other case is when a player has gone "All In". If there are additional bets over and above the All In bet, they are handled in a side pot between the other remaining participants. A Player who has gone All In does not win any of the money from a side pot that they are not participating in. Bets in any side pots are resolved independently of the main pot amongst that pot's participants.
