Forced Bets
Seven card stud is normally played with an ante that is 1/5 of the low limit bet. Every player must ante up before the hand begins. The ante does not count towards any future bets. Bring in After the initial deal when every player has 1 card showing, the person with the lowest card must "bring in", which means he must place 1/2 of the low limit bet size in the pot. If two or more players share the lowest card, the one closest to the dealer's left side must bring in. This bet counts as your first round bet, so as long as nobody raises you won't have to put any more money in the pot to see the next card.
Betting Rounds
There are five rounds of betting. In fixed limit seven card stud, all bets and raises must be equal to either the low limit, or high limit bet size, depending on what round it is. In the first two rounds, all bets and raises must be equal to the low limit bet size. In the third, fourth, and fifth rounds, all bets must be equal to the high limit bet size.
First Round
Two cards are dealt face down to every player, followed by another card face up. The player with the lowest card must bring in, by betting 1/2 of the low limit bet. He may choose to raise by betting the full low limit bet. Play proceeds clockwise around the table with each player choosing to fold, call, or raise. All bets and raises must be equal to the low limit bet size.
Second Round
A fourth card is dealt face up to every player. The player with the highest hand showing at this point is the first to act. He may choose to fold, check, or bet. If two or more players are tied for the highest hand, the one closest to the dealer's left will be the first to act. Play proceeds clockwise around the table same as before. If a player is showing a pair at this point, then he and all the other players have the option to bet either the low limit bet size or the high limit bet size. Otherwise, all bets and raises must be equal to the low limit bet size.
Thrid Round
A fifth card is dealt face up to every player. Play proceeds as in the previous round, with the highest hand betting first, except now all bets and raises must be equal to the high limit bet size.

If that occurs, instead of every player receiving a card face down, a single card is placed in the middle of the table face up which every player is free to use in the making of their best 5 card hand. Showdown - Anyone who has not folded after the last round of betting will now have the option of showing their hand in hopes of taking down the pot.
