How to play Texas Holdem Poker

How to Play Texas Holdem:

Texas Hold’em is really pretty simple to learn. Mastering the game is a bit harder. :)

Everyone is dealt 2 cards and then 5 cards will also be dealt in the middle of the table as community cards face-up.

Out of the 2 cards you are dealt and the 5 cards face up on the table, is 7 cards in which you'll take the best 5 cards out of the 7 to make your hand.

The best hand wins then, and the hand ranks are just like regular poker. The best poker hand rankings are as follows:


1. Royal Flush:
A, K, Q, J, 10
all of the same suit

2. Straight Flush:
Any five card sequence
in the same suit
(Ex: 4, 5, 6, 7, 8)

3. Four of a Kind:
All four cards of
the same index
(Ex: Q, Q, Q, Q)

4. Full House:
Three of a kind
combined with a pair
(Ex: K, K, 3, 3, 3)

5. Flush:
Any five cards of the same
suit, but not in sequence

6. Straight:
Five cards in sequence,
but not in the same suit

7. Three of a Kind:
Three cards of the same index

8. Two Pair:
Two separate pairs
(Ex: Q, Q, 7, 7)

9. Pair:
Two cards of the same index

10. High Card:
