The rules of iron cross poker are similar to that of the Texas hold’em poker. This is a community card poker where each player gets five hole cards. In some iron cross variants the players can muck a hole card and replace it with a new card. A wild card is added to the mix in iron cross poker. It allows the players to choose a card out of the six cards and use it as their community card. The players can form their best hand by using this community card with the two hole cards.
