Southern Cross

description Southern Cross Overview

Southern Cross is a home poker variant that arranges five community cards in the shape of a cross. The central card is shared by the crossing lines, and the rules restrict players to forming hands from specified vertical or horizontal lines rather than treating all five cards as an unrestricted group. Some descriptions use a high-low split pot, while home-game rules can differ on private cards, betting rounds, and the exact line available to each player.
