What Every New Pusoy Player Needs to Know
Pusoy deals 13 cards to each player, who then arranges them into three hands: a 3-card front hand, a 5-card middle hand, and a 5-card back hand. The back hand must be the strongest, the middle hand must rank higher than the front, and the front is your weakest set. Breaking that order produces a foul, and a fouled hand loses automatically.
Standard poker rankings apply — pairs, straights, flushes, full houses, and so on — so if you already know basic poker hand values, reading a Pusoy table becomes much faster. The goal is to beat each of your opponents' matching hands across all three rows.
