Texas Hold'em, a version of poker for 2 to 10 players, is today one of the variants of poker widely accepted. The game has gained popularity in both United States and abroad, for its quick pace and simplicity of its rules. A hand of Texas Hold'em consists of four betting rounds. After making the blinds (see explanation below), each player receives two cards face down called private "letter of hand". Throughout the hand was placed uncovered in the center of the table five "community cards", which all players share.

After completing the fourth and final betting round is going to "show". The player, who created the poker hand of five cards of higher value, using any combination of letters between their two hands and the five community cards, wins the hole.

Texas Hold'em, step by step

1st step: The blinds

• After the fourth betting round is a "show" moves (if more than one player remains active, see the explanation of the "show" below). At the stage that shows the cards, each player makes any combination of two letters of their hand and the five community cards to form a poker hand of five cards of highest value possible.

• The player who has created the highest value hand wins the pot, from which it follows the "commission" of the house. The policy of "playing around" (All-in) is applied to all wells.
