In standard Chinese poker all 13 cards are dealt at the same time and cards are not exposed while hands are being set.

In Open Face Chinese Poker players do not receive all 13 cards to start. Rather, they begin with five cards and then must set them face up.

From this point each player receives cards one at a time and must set them in a row before the next card is received. This continues until all 13 cards have been set in player hands.
