Rules:                                     

Three cards are dealt to each player and each player has the option of either to play 'Open' and look at their cards, or play 'Blind', and not look at their cards.

Players must then place their bets. The rules on betting are that all players that are playing open, must double the bet of the highest Blind players bet. Any players playing Blind may decide to look at their cards at any time, making them an Open player.

Players can choose to either match the previous players bet, or raise the bet. If though, a player chooses to match the existing bet, and the next player decides to raise the bet, the player that did not raise is out of the game.

Play continues until only two players are left, the rest having either folded, or having been raised out of the game. A player can then see the other players hand by matching his bet.

At the end of the hand, each player stacks his hand from highest card down, and all cards are put to the bottom of the deck, no shuffling.
