Face up

Many poker games will use Face Up cards. These cards are dealt out so everyone can see them. For instance, in Hold Em, all of the community cards are dealt face up, and all players are allowed to use them to make their best poker hand. Not all games allow for community-use face up cards, though. For example, in 5 Card Stud, the face up cards dealt to any one player are used by that player alone.
