Firstly each ladbrokes poker player is dealt five hidden hole cards, the blinds and button structure are exactly the same as other poker games with a small and big blind moving round the table in the same fashion. Following the deal there is a round of betting, then each player can choose to swap as many cards as they please once each, there is then another round of betting followed by another "draw" where each player gets to swap their cards once as before. Another round of betting follows, then there is a third and final chance to draw, before one final betting round.

The aim of the ladbrokespoker game is to make the lowest possible unpaired hand, those familiar with Omaha hi/lo and stud hi/lo will know about qualifying low hands, but with Triple Draw an Ace is always high, not low. The suits are not important in the case of this game it is merely a case of making the numerically lowest five card hand to win. If the highest card anyone is holding is the same as the other player during a showdown, then the hand is judged on the next lowest card and the next if needs be, to determine the winner. Triple Draw isn’t a widely played game butcan always be a good way to wind down and have some fun between stressful tournaments or cash games. www.ladbrokespoker.com
