One of the most popular poker games in the world is Texas Hold'em. The reason for this
is simple; it's a great game and simple to play. There are 3 different variations of
Texas Hold'em.
- Limit - This is where you have a set betting limit for each round. So if a table has a limit of $.50/$1.00 then the max bet for the first round is $.50 and every round after that will have a max bet of $1.00.
- Pot Limit - You can bet as much as the total pot.
- No Limit - Here you can bet as much as you want.
Here's how the Texas Hold'em is played:
- 2 Players to the left of the dealer bet a 'Small Blind' and 'Big Blind'. A blind is where you bet before seeing your hand. So on a $.50/$1.00 game it would be $.25 and $.50.
- After the blinds are in the dealer will deal 2 cards face down.
- Then we have a round of betting.
- After that betting round the dealer will lay the 'flop'. This is where they lay 3 cards face up that all the players will share.
- Then we have a round of betting.
- Now a 4th card is placed face up in the middle.
- Then we have a round of betting.
- Then the last card is placed face up along side the other shared cards.
- Then we have the last round of betting.
