Texas Holdem Poker
Texas Holdem is by far the most popular version of poker in the world today.
It is played anywhere from online to offline, home games between friends to casinos and televised tournaments such as the WSOP. (World series of poker)
As all Holdem games Texas Holdem Poker is based on the concept of "community cards" and hole cards.
We shall review the process of a Texas Holdem Hand :
1) PreFlop + Blinds
Blinds are posted according to the position and two hole cards are dealt face down to each player.
At this point every player has the choice of either fold, call or raise (Unless raises are made the amount of the "call" is the big blind).
When all bets are called than we move to stage two.
In case all players besides one folded that player will win the hand. This is true at any phase.
2) The Flop
Three "community cards" are dealt face up in the middle of the table. These cards can be "used" by any one of the players to create the best
possible poker hand.(Hence the name community cards).
Now comes another round of betting and we move to step 3.
3) The Turn
A forth community card is dealt face up to the center of the table, afterwards comes another round of betting.
4) The River
A fifth and final community card is dealt face up, there is a final round of betting and a showdown.
The Player with the best poker hand will win the pot.
