Texas Hold’em Poker Rules

Texas Hold’em still maintains the basic principle of the Poker game, which is to give all the prize money to the owner of the highest-ranked hand. However, in this genre, players will compete in groups, creating a highly competitive game and raising the prize money to an extremely high number. Specifically, the rules of Texas Hold’em Poker include the following provisions:

How to deal with cards

In the 3D version of PPGAMING, the cards are dealt by the system according to the following principle:

Deal cards to the players participating in the betting round in turn clockwise. The first card recipient is decided by drawing a card and will display the letter D next to it. In the following rounds, the winner will receive this D position.

In the first round of dealing, each player at the table receives 2 face-down cards, called hole cards.

Next, the system spreads 3 face-up cards on the table, called community cards.

After the next betting rounds, the community cards will be opened. A maximum of 5 cards are opened in the middle of the table.

The ranking deck will be made up of 2 private cards and the community cards on the table. Then, the system finds the winner according to the Texas Hold’em Poker ranking.

Game order

• A Texas Hold’em Poker betting session will take place in a specific order including the following rounds:
• Post Blind: Players put in their bets to join a new hand. Because the cards have not been dealt but there is still a betting option, this round is called Post Blind.
• Pre–flop: The system deals 2 hole cards to all those who have placed blinds before. You can see your cards but cannot know the value of other players’ cards.
• The Flop: 3 community cards are opened and players can base on the current deck they are holding to decide their betting strategy.
• The Turn: The 4th community card is opened and the players who continue to participate in the betting round will need to make the next decision.
• The River: The 5th community card – the last card is opened. This is also the round of making the decision.
• Showdown: The round of showing the cards will reveal all the hole cards of the remaining players. After that, the system ranks and announces the winner.

How to play Texas Hold’em Poker to win big

In each round, players can make one of the following choices:

Fold: Choose to fold if you find your hand is too weak and has no chance of winning.

Bet: The player bets money when it is his turn.

Raise: Increase the bet amount compared to the current round’s general level. This action is called a Bet. The following players will have to bet with a minimum amount equal to your bet.

Call: This is the option that allows you to continue with a bet equal to the previous player’s amount.

Check: This action only appears if no one has Bet/Raised before. The next players can continue the turn without having to bet more money.

Based on understanding the options in a game, you need to come up with an appropriate playing strategy right after receiving 2 hole cards from the system. In addition to assessing your chances of winning, consider and speculate on your opponent’s potential through actions.
