The rules of Texas Hold'em poker are quite easy to understand and memorize, all you need is your attentiveness. Let us learn the main rules of Texas Hold'em. The game starts with making forced blind bets – the blinds. The first player to the left of the button (the button is the player from whom the order of betting is counted) places the small blind – a blind bet, the sum of which is half of the big blind. The big blind is placed by the second player to the left of the button. The sum of the big blind is specified for each game individually.

After the blinds has been posted, each player is dealt two cads. Each player can see just his own two cards. They are called the pocket cards. When the players have received their pocket cards, they start betting, i.e. making their bets. This stage is called the pre-flop.

When all players have made their bets, three cards are dealt face up on the board. These open cards are shared by all players, that is why they are also called the community cards. Then the betting round begins. This stage is called the flop.

After the flop the fourth community card is dealt on board, and the betting starts again – this is the turn. When the round of betting on the turn is over, the fifth community card is dealt and the last round of betting is held. This stage is called the river.

After the last round of betting the hole (down) cards are shown. It is called the showdown. The players open their pocket cards and determine the winner.

During each betting round the player can perform certain actions, namely:

• fold – throw his cards away and leave the game until the next deal;

• check – remain in the game without making the bet into the pot; it is possible if all previous players have also preferred to check;

• call – match the bet, i.e. bet the sum of money that is equal to the bet of the previous player;

• raise – increase the bet by putting into the pot more chips than the previous player has put;

• re-raise – increase the bet even more if the previous player have raised.
