Visible Cards
Visible cards are cards that are dealt face up to each player. In games like stud, players can see them and use them to complete a five-card hand.
The simple explanation
In stud, some of your cards are open, and the others can see them. These are visible cards. They give information about the hands.
A closer look
Visible cards matter for strategy: you can see which cards are gone, which helps to count your outs, and you can guess the opponents' hands. In community-card games, the board cards are also visible to everyone. Keeping track of the visible cards is a basic skill in stud.
A practical example
In seven-card stud, a player's visible cards are K♥ K♦ 7♣ and the others watch them.
