Object of the Game
To set 13 cards received on the deal into three separate poker hands: a three-card front hand (straights and flushes do not count in the three-card hand); a five-card middle hand; and a five-card back hand. The object of the game is to create three hands that outrank the corresponding hands set by the opponent(s). Note: The front hand may not rank higher that the middle hand, and the middle hand may not rank higher that the back hand. If a player fails to set his hand in the proper ranking order, the hand is considered foul and that player must pay a penalty to each of his/her opponents. 
 
How to Play
13-Card Poker is played with a regular 52-card desk. Standard poker rankings apply. Four players are dealt 13 cards each. After the players have set their cards, the cards are turned face up and the deal is scored. Each player compares his three hands against those of his opponents, one player at a time, beginning with the player clockwise next to the dealer button and moving clockwise around the table.
 
How to Win
The settlement of wagers is based on points awarded for each of the three hands the player holds.* Each of the three hands is worth one (1) point, and each point is given a monetary value that depends on the table limit. The player who has the higher ranking for each hand wins one point from his opponent(s); players settle their wagers according to the point difference between them.
