Blind Mans Bluff Poker Rules

Blind Mans Bluff poker is a variation of Texas Hold'em. Players are all dealt two hole cards, which they cannot look at. Players hold the cards to their forehead so that the rest of the table can see them. The game itself is exactly the same as a standard Texas Hold'em game. The concept is a little more obvious in this game as in any poker games, try to gain as much knowledge about what your opponent may be holding as possible. The main difference here is that you will get to see a certain amount of cards (on foreheads) so you will be able to narrow down what players may have. A good memory and a basic maths may help, particularly with the calculation of odds!

The game structure is identical as indicated below.

All players are dealt 2 Hole cards (pre flop)

The Flop (3rd community Card)

The Turn (4th community card)

The River (5th community card)

As you can see the 2 hole cards that each of your opponents have, the idea is to determine your actions from the information that your opponents give you.
