So you're new to Texas
Hold'Em poker?
Not a problem.
Texas Hold 'Em poker is by far the best game for a beginner
to learn. Instead of other poker games like Omaha High or 7
card stud which entail a great many more possibilities for calculating
odds and perhaps even trying to count cards. |
|
| |
| Hold'Em can be learned in a few minutes by anyone, and you can be playing fairly well with a few hours practice. In order to master the game, however, you must play and you must play fairly often. |

A Texas Hold em poker game goes as follows:
1. The betting structure can vary, but most games
start with two players placing out a predetermined amount of money
so there is an initial amount to play for. This is called posting
the blinds. These players are the two to the left of the dealer.
2. The dealer shuffles up a complete deck of 52 playing cards.
 |
3. Each player is dealt two cards face down.
These are called your hole or pocket cards.
4. Then there is a round of betting starting
with the guy to the left of the two who posted the blinds.
This round is usually referred to by the term pre-flop.
5. The amount betted depends on what kind of game it is. (Click
here for more information about betting structures)
6. Much like most games of poker, players
can check, raise, or fold. |
7. After the betting round ends, the dealer discards
the top card of the deck. This is called a burn card. This is done
to prevent cheating.
8. The dealer then flips the next three cards face up on the table.
These cards are called the flop. These are communal cards that anyone
can use in combination with their two pocket cards to form a poker
hand.
|
9. There is another round of betting starting
with the player to the left of the dealer.
10. After the betting concludes, the dealer burns another
card and flips one more onto the table. This is called the
turn card. Players can use this sixth card now to form a five
card poker hand.
11. The player to the left of the dealer begins another round
of betting. In many types of games, this is where the bet
size doubles.
12. Finally, the dealer burns a card and
places a final card face up on the table. This is called the
river. Players can now use any of the five cards on the table
or the two cards in their pocket to form a five card poker
hand.
13. There is one final round of betting starting with the
player to the left of the dealer. |
|
14. After that, all of the players remaining in
the game begin to reveal their hands. This begins with the player
to the left of the last player to call. It's called the showdown.
15. The player with the best hand wins!
