Poker
Rules : The basics.
There a variations of poker and the main game played
online and around the world live, is Texas Hold Em.
Texas Hold Em starts with two cards being dealt 'face down'
to each player from one deck of 52 cards, then a further
five 'community' cards are dealt face up on the table and
each player tries to make the best 'five card hand' from a
total of even cards and each will bet according to their own
hand strength, fold their cards or check and do nothing.
Ultimately, each hand will either have a winner or a draw
and the winning hands bring the money pot to that player or
players..
There are two main types of poker games and that is No Limit
or Pot Limit.
No limit poker allows players at anytime to
'go all in' and place all their chips in one single bet.
Where as 'Limit Poker' allows players to only place
bets upto a certain amount of chips.

Basic Poker Rules of Texas Hold
Em.....

Pocket cards start each hand.
Two cards are dealt to each player at the
table.
The cards are dealt face down and each player looks
at their cards to see what they have. All the
pocket cards stay face down throughout the
hand.
The Flop.
Next, the dealer places 3 cards face up in the
center of the table. ( All cards dealt in the
middle of the table are called community
cards and are for all the players to see ).
From these 3 community cards, each player will
mentally add their own pocket cards to the
community cards and make the best hand he or she
can. They will bet, check or fold depending on
strength of the hand they each have.
The Turn
After the players have stopped betting, the
dealer will place another card along side the other
three community cards already on the table. This
4th card is called the Turn.
Betting will start again and players will bet,
check or fold, again depending on their hand
strength.
The River.
The fifth and final community card dealt on the
table face up, is called the River.
The river is the final part of the hand and players
will go into betting mode again,fold or not do
anything, ready for what is known as the showdown
with the best hand winning the pot.
The winning player takes
the pot and can choose whether to show his or her
cards when they win but if the winner has placed a
bet and any other player matches or 'calls' the
bet, then the cards are allowed to be shown to the
table.
When a player doesn't show his cards he will
'muck' them back to the dealer face down but
players can show their cards at any time depending
on what tactics they want to play.
And that is the very basics of how to play
poker.
The principal of the game is to win by having the
best hand possible OR a player may 'bluff' the
other players by placing high bets even though he
may not have a hand at all, in the hope that the
other players will believe he has a strong hand and
they fold their own then sit out of the remainder
of the hand in play untill the next hand is dealt
and the procedure starts over again.
