Mississippi Roll is a seven-card stud poker game.
The rules are as follows:
1 Seven cards are dealt to each player, facedown.
2 Each player passes one card to the player on his left.
3 Each player passes two cards to the player on his left.
4 Each player passes three cards to the player on his left.
5 Each player discards two cards from his hand, arranges the five remaining cards in the order he wishes to reveal them, and places his hand facedown in a pack before him on the table.
6 The players roll their top card. A round of betting follows, starting with the player with the high card showing.
7 The remaining cards are revealed one by one, with each roll followed by a round of betting.
8 The high hand and low hand split the pot.
