Ante. Stud poker is commonly played with an ante, which is a wager required by all gamblers that doesn't contribute to any subsequent betting.
The precise amount of the ante depends on the stakes you have chosen to play.
In Stud poker games, antes provide money in the pot for whoever takes the hand. The ante is a part of the minimal board stake and is placed at the beginning of the hand by each participant in the game.
Seven card stud is commonly played with an ante that is approximately 1/5 of the low limit bet value.  

Bring in. Once the antes have been collected, players receives 3 cards - 2 down known as hole cards, and one open, called the door card, starting with the person to the dealer’s left side.
The player who gets the lowest value exposed card acts the 1st round of betting, called the Bring in.
In the event that two or more players receive the identical denomination exposed card then the Bring-in is decided by color, in order – spades, hearts, diamonds, clubs.
A betting round takes place after the bring-in is placed. The 1st round of betting called 3rd Street. Each player can call, raise, or fold their cards.
The bring in bet is usually about 1/2 of the small bet in the game. When the bring in has been listed, the action continues around the board in a clockwise direction.

Fourth Street - the turn. Once all bets have been placed, the next exposed card is dealt to each person. This card is known as fourth street or the turn.
A betting round will now begin with the player who holds the strongest open cards showing wagers first. This person is not forced to bet (unlike the low hand owner in the early series of betting) and may opt to check, fold or bet.
In the instance that the strongest face up hand is common to more than one player, the player sitting closer to the dealer’s left acts the series of betting. By this phase, persons can bet at the highest limit, which is determined to following bets. If a persons receive a pair they can post a double bet.
Once again the action will proceed clockwise until all bets are matched.

5th street. A 5th card is dealt face up to every person. The action moves as in the early round, except now all wagers and raises must be equal to the maximal limit bet value.

6th Street. Each of the participating player is dealt yet next open card, known as 6th Street, and play proceeds exactly as it did in the previous stage, using double bets and best hand on table acting first.

7th Street – The River. A 7th card is now dealt hidden to each remaining person, this is called the river card. The player who had the best visible hands from the previous phase will once again initiate the betting round. The players have the same right accessible to them: to check (in the event that no bet has been made), calling, raising or folding. Once all bets have been matched we enter to the showdown.

Showdown. Anyone who has not folded after the last round of betting will now have the right of showing their hand. When playing Seven Card Stud the person who bet last is the first to show their cards, and then it continues in a clockwise motion from there, with each remaining player either choosing to show their hand, or fold it. Sometimes the gamblers will muck their hand if they aren't going to take the pot, and do not like other players to reveal what they played.
The person with the highest five-card poker hand gets the pot. In the instance that two or more persons have identical five-card poker combination, the pot is split between them.
