Amarillo Slim's 7 Card Stud

Amarillo Slim's 7 Card Stud turns the classic poker variant into a computer card game with the legendary Amarillo Slim providing the name and atmosphere. Seven-card stud is all about reading the situation, managing your hand and deciding when to bet, fold or keep pushing your luck. The game lacks the social atmosphere of a smoky card room, naturally, but it does provide a compact way to practice the basic rhythms of the game. Its interface is functional rather than flashy, putting the cards and betting decisions firmly at center stage. That simplicity suits poker surprisingly well. There are no explosions to distract you and no heroic quests to complete. Just cards, chips and the creeping suspicion that the computer opponent has somehow been dealt exactly what it needed again.
