Now since this is a game you could play at home against your friends unlike blackjack and roulette you would probably like to know how to play it. First of is the idea of poker is to play the opponent and not the cards. Because here players could bluff and scare you, or try to make you think they are bluffing but they have the best hand. The second thing to remember is that you are playing against everyone on the table, you do not have any friends. At the casino they usually take a percentage fee from the pot, something around 2-3 percent and therefore they do not risk anything while earning a lot.
Every player will be dealt two cards, there have to be at least two players but it usually is around eight. There is a big blind and a small blind chip that rotates. The big bling must throw in the blind directly and the small blind pays half of that. This is just so there will be a bet in each round. Now for the other players they will get three options, call the blind, raise the blind or fold. To know what to do you have to understand the cards. There will a total of seven cards, the two in your hand and five on the table. You will try to get the best five cards you can get, and ultimately win the pot. So what is the worst card you can start with? A two and a seven in different shapes. If you ever receive that just fold, because you can´t get a straight or a flush without anyone else on the table having that.
When all the bets are handed in to the dealer, he will the show the first three cards that would be added to the game this is the turn. Know important to remember is you have to think of all the possible combinations on the table before making your next move. If for example you have the best possible hand maybe you should raise or just bet a small amount just to keep as many as possible in the game. Two more cards will be shown on the table by the dealer and there will be a betting round between each of them and also at the end. Then we will have the showdown where the player raising the bet will have to show his cards first. The person with the best hand takes home the entire pot. If there is a draw you will split the pot and if you are lucky be somewhat richer than you started the game hand.
