[How to Master Texas Hold’em] The rules, card types, and terminology will be introduced to you at once

Rules

Texas Hold’em poker rules require the use of a standard 52-card deck, and the number of participating players ranges from 2 to 10 players. The main goal of the player is to win the Pot of Pot (POT), which is the sum of chips bet by all players in the game. You will often hear conversations such as “I want to capture POT” and “Fill a POT”, which refers to the pot. There are two ways to win the pot, as follows:

First, “Determine the Banker”, draw cards to compare the size, the winner will be the Banker for the first time, and the game will proceed in a clockwise direction. Then, the next two players clockwise from the dealer must place blind bets in sequence. Then the hole cards are dealt, 2 cards face down, only the players can see them.

Betting begins with the next player clockwise from the big blind player (preflop betting). Three community cards are dealt on the table, face up, shared by all players who have not folded their cards (on the flop).

Begin with the next player clockwise from the button who has not folded their cards (betting on the flop). The fourth community card is dealt face up on the table (turn). Start with the next player clockwise from the button who has not folded their cards (turn bet). The fifth community card is dealt face up (river). Start with the next player clockwise from the button who has not folded their cards (river bet).

Finally, there is a showdown of cards. The next player clockwise from the button position who has not folded his cards will show his hole card first, and the player with the best 5-card deck wins the pot chips.

*Note: Texas Hold’em poker positions are not randomly located. Each player’s position has a unique name and different playing rules.

Card type

Texas hold’em poker is similar to ordinary playing cards. The difference is that only the size is considered, not the suit, and the rules include the possibility of a tie.

• Straight Flush: Five consecutive cards of the same suit.
• Four of a Kind: A combination of four cards of the same number + any card.
• Full House: A combination of three cards with the same number + a combination of two cards with the same number.
• Straight: five cards arranged in order, the suit and color do not need to be the same.
• Flush: A combination of five cards of the same suit and out of sequence.
• Pair: A combination of a pair + any three cards in the deck.
• Loose cards: If there is no combination of the above, it must be higher than the highest card in the player’s hole card.
