Instructions on how to play "Texas Hold'Em Poker"

1. Understand the basics of draw poker. Learn the "Texas-rules" (Texas Hold'em).

Each player will be dealt 2 secret cards (called your "hold" or "hole" cards).

Then 5 shared community cards will be placed on the middle of the table in front of the dealer, for all to see -- dealt face up in 3 stages.

Players try to make the best 5-card hand possible out of their 7 cards.

2. Deal. Each player takes a turn being the dealer/or button, unless the house furnishes the dealer.

If so, then the button-position is passed around the table to the left, clockwise. In Texas Hold'em, an amount called the "blind" (minimum bet), takes the place of the ante on each new hand, as the "big blind-amount" is the minimum initial bet for the hand.

* The dealer assures that 1/2 the minimum is paid into the pot by the player immediately to the left of the button-position.

That person is called the "small blind" for the hand, and the next person toward the left who is the "big blind" pays the full minimum before the deal of the cards. The dealer then deals each player 2 cards face down, one at a time, starting with player to the left of the big blind position back to the button and the blinds last.

The other players can choose to fold rather than pay the blind-amount or to begin the wagering after looking at their 2 hold cards.

* Neither blind gets to wager on their hold cards until the rest of the table get to decide and wager or fold going clockwise, and then it comes back around to the blinds to bet after the button gets to bet.

3. Begin the first round. It is called playing the "pre-flop" round. Play begins with the first player to the left of the big blind.

That player either "calls" and pays in the big blind (the minimum bet), or raises and pays the blind plus more, or folds/discards/mucks the hold cards face down pushing them toward the center of the table.

* Play continues around the table, with each player having to match the previous bet, raise, or fold. If no one raises, the big blind can check or raise before the next round.

4. See the flop. After the first round of betting has been settled, the dealer reveals the first 3 of the 5 cards placed face up on the board, called the flop.

First the dealer places the top card off the deck face-down (called the burn card, placed in the discards). The next three cards from the deck are displayed face-up side by see, so you can all see them.

Each player now has 2 cards in their hold (personal hand) and 3 community cards to consider to bet upon. Another round of betting begins, starting with the player to the left of the dealer.

5. See the turn (4th card). After the second round of betting, the dealer burns (discards) the next top card and deals the next card of the hand to the table display, called the 'turn" or "4th-street".

The remaining players bet again, starting with the player to the left of the dealer.

6. See the 5th card. After the third round of betting, the dealer burns the next card and then reveals the 5th and final card of the hand called the "river" or "5th-street".

Players bet on their hands as usual for the round, and the winner takes the pot. If a player bets, but the rest fold rather than risk more into the pot, then the winning player does not need to show his or her hand/hold, but may show either card or both for effect.

As if to say, "See, I play good cards; oh, but sometimes I bet to see whether I can get lucky."
