Players given two cards face down from a regular deck of well-shuffled cards. These are generally known as hole cards and alongside the five ‘community cards’ which will be shortly revealed, each player will try to construct the best possible five-card hand they can.

Blinds

To avoid a scenario where players see endless hands without needing to risk any money if they don’t like their hands. Most forms of Hold’em will see two players have to put in ‘forced bets’ at the start of the hand. Players take turns being the Dealer (obviously online poker players don’t deal at all) and a plastic dealer button rotates around the poker table. so you always know who the Dealer is.

The player to the left of the Dealer needs to place a bet which is known as the Small Blind. The player to the left of the Small Blind is called the Big Blind and needs to place a bet worth twice the value of the Small Blind. If the Small Blind wants to see the flop, they’ll have to match the amount of the Big Blind.

All the other players will also have to match the value of the Big Blind to see the flop. And if someone raises to more than the value of the Big Blind, that’s what you have to pay to stay in the hand.

Flop

If there are two or more players still left in the hand, the Dealer will reveal the first three cards all at once, known as the flop.

By this stage, players will have a good idea of the hand they can end up with because they’ll know how their own two cards can be used along with the first three community cards.

The first player to bet is the one to the left of the Dealer or if they’re no longer in the hand, the one to the left of that. Then has the chance to call or raise. Just as in the previous round of betting, once there’s a raise everyone else either has to match it, raise it or fold.

Once everyone has done one of the above, that round of betting is over and it’s time for ‘the turn’.

Turn

Players still left in the hand at this stage will have the opportunity to see the turn card, the fourth card.

Again, by this round players will know six of the cards- their own two plus four of the community cards. So in most cases will either have a strong hand by now or will carry on waiting for another card. That might give there hand a boost, for example, complete a straight or get them to a second pair, or will carry on bluffing and pretending they have a better hand than they do.

After the revealing of the fourth community card, we go through the same betting process yet again. The first player to the left of the Dealer who’s still in the hand gets the chance to call or raise and the others need to decide if they’re calling any raises, re-raising or folding.

But that’s by no means the end of the game. There’s still a final round of betting using the same order of betting as before. And either one player remains in the game, who raised while the other players all folded or…two or more players go to the very last showdown, known as ‘heads up’.

Once the betting is over, players reveal their hands and the winner walks away with the pot. In the case of two or more players holding the same hand, the pot will be split between the two or more players who have it.
