Poker Basics
Poker games are generally
played with a standard deck of 52 cards.
A standard deck consists of of thirteen different
ranks of cards, and they are: Ace, King,
Queen, Jack, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2.
Each of these cards comes in four different
suits: Clubs, Diamonds, Hearts, Spades.
Poker
games involve rounds of betting into a
common fund, or "pot",
and rounds of replacing/receiving cards.
The number of betting rounds and card draws
depends on the particular variation of the
game you are playing. Action proceeds in
a clockwise direction.
Generally
betting begins with players making an "Ante" or
a "Blind Bet" (called so because
the player bets without having seen their
cards). During the remaining betting rounds,
players will take one of the following actions:
Check - if
there is not bet already on the table, the
player may in essence bet 0, and pass the
action on to the next player.
Call - if
there is a bet on the table, the player may
choose to match the bet.
Bet or Raise -
if there were no bets on the table, the player
places one by betting. If there was a bet
on the table, the player may increase the
bet by raising.
Fold - the
player does not choose to match the bet on
the table, and they forfeit any chance at
winning the pot. They also surrender their
cards.
At the end of the game, the
highest hand wins.
