In texas hold’em, the initial step is to get the card game started, and for this the players put out a specific sum of cash. ‘Posting the blinds’ is the commonly used term for this play. In the next step, the dealer shuffles the cards and deals out two cards face down to every player. A normal deck of 52 playing cards is used in the deal. After the deal, there is the initial round of betting. This sequence is typically known as a "pre-flop".

After the 1st betting round, the first card is discarded. This thrown away card is called the "burn card", and this is performed to make sure that there is no treachery. The next three cards are then flipped face up on the poker table. These cards are ‘the flop’. Now follows a 2nd round of wagering, after that the croupier tosses out another card and deals 1 more card onto the poker table. Following this, players can employ the 6th card to create a five-card poker hand.

An additional round of wagering happens, and in a good many types of poker, here is where the wager amount doubles. There is an additional round of throwing away a card, and a final deal of a card face-up on the table. This is called the "river". Competitors can now employ any of the five cards on the table, and/or the two cards in their hand, to create a 5card poker hand.

To finish it up there’s another sequence of wagering. After that, all the players left start to reveal their hands. This is known as the "showdown". Obviously, the bettor who holds the highest hand is the winner. When players have tied hands a sharing of the winnings is used.

Texas Holdem is a basic game to pick up, but to achieve prowess one needs a fair amount of studying.
