You can only use 5 cards to make a hand in Stud, meaning your dad was correct. In the event of two players holding the same straight flush (all 5 cards have to have the same rank, such as both players holding 4-5-6-7-8), the pot is split.
Suits are never taken into account for deciding a winning hand in Seven Card Stud either.
hi my dad an me had an identical straight flush in seven card stud.... he argued that we split the pot and i argued that we use the sixth card as a "kicker tie breaker" what is the ruling on this?
