The worlds most popular game, played with two closed cards and five community cards. From these seven cards you create your five-card-pokerhand, with one, two or none of the personal closed cards.

The Game

1. The player left of the dealer places a small blind, and the player to the left of the small blind places a big blind which is double the amount of the small blind.
2. All players recieve two closed cards each, and the first bettinground is commenced by the player left of the big blind who shall fold, call(same amount as the big blind) or raise.
3. Three community cards - the flop - is layed on the table, and the 2nd bettinground is now initiated by the player closest to the dealers left, who will also start the 3rd and 4th bettinground.
4. The 4th community card - the turn - is dealt, and the 3rd bettinground is commenced.
5. The 5th and last community card - the river - is dealt, and the last bettinground is commenced. When the last bet has been called, there´s a Showdown where the best hand wins the pot. Should two or more players have the same hand, they will split the pot. If there was a bet on the river, the player making the last bet or raise will have to show up first. If no bet on river, the player closest to the dealers left side will have to show first.
