3-Hand Holdem Rule question (1 Viewer)

[spyderm0nkey]

Per rules: "After individual cards are dealt, player separates cards into three 2-card Hold’em hands and caps each hand. Once the hands are set, changing them will foul the player’s hand.
Final Hand: Best 5-card hand from Individual and Community"

Anyone understand these rules? You play three different holdem hands per person and the best 5 (out of your 6) cards?

You start with 3 sets (of 2 ) hole cards.

You discard one set after the flop is dealt and another set after the turn is dealt (if you are still in and haven't folded). If you make it to the river, or the betting on the turn, you will only have one set of 2 hole cards left and it then plays just like normal holdem - you make the best 5 card hand out of your 2 hole cards and the 5 on the board.

You have to follow the graphic as well. Each player starts with 3 sets of hole cards, but will ultimately discard all but one pair.
