Down Card Meaning – Any Card Dealt Face Down
A down card is any card that is dealt face down. It is also known as a hole card. Down cards are a gameplay feature of many casino games, most notably poker and blackjack.
For example, in community card poker games like Texas Hold’em, each player receives two down cards. All other cards, those on the community board, are face up.
