Conduct a Texas Hold'em poker game:

Before any distribution of cards, a player must pay a mandatory "small blind" and another the "big blind". The small blind is given by the active player to the left of the dealer, and the big blind is given by the player left of the "small blind". This forced bet is the minimum bet for the big blind, and his half to the small blind. The advantage of this system is forcing players to play, including tournament with the blinds increase, but it also has the advantage of limiting fraud.

The dealer (donor card) deals the cards one by one around the table in the direction of clockwise. Each player has so therefore two hole cards and thus began the first round of betting. The first to speak is the player to the left of the "big blind" and so on.

• At this point, three options available to you:

1. Go / to bed: you do not bet, fold your cards and will not play this round.
2. Call / follow: you bet the equivalent of the blind or call a raise.
3. Raise / restart: you bet more and players must line up if you win.

Each player to choose between these options, once the bets are equal be more players, bidding stopped and the dealer deals the flop (3 community cards).

• Then comes the second round of betting:

The first player to act is now the first player left of the dealer, for all subsequent rounds. It can either check and turn it over to the next player or bet (bet). Then, players will therefore be: fold / check / monitor / restart.

If no one has called, the turn ends and the player to bet wins. Otherwise the dealer deals one additional card (the turn) and a new round of betting starts with the same rules as before. Similarly at the end of this tour is distributed the last card of the flop, the river (river) which will indicate the final round of betting.

Layer is a player the other by raising the coup and wins, it should be a showdown of cards and the highest hand wins.
