TEXAS HOLD’EM>>Each player is dealt two private cards and there are five face up shared cards on the table. The winner is the player who can make the best five-card poker hand from the seven available cards. Since the 1990’s, Texas Hold’em has become one of the most popular poker games worldwide.>Texas Hold’em is usually played with no ante, but with blinds. The player to the dealer’s left must make a “small blind” bet. The player to the left of the small blind must make a “big blind” bet. The amounts of both should be specified in advance. >The cards are shuffled and cut, and two cards are dealt down to each player, starting with the person to the dealer’s left. Players may look at their two cards and must not show them to another player. The player to the left of the big blind must either call or raise the big blind bet. The play in turn will go around the table according to poker rules. Table rules will specify any limits on the size or number of raises. >Three community cards will be dealt face up in the center of the table. This is called the flop. There is then a second betting round begun by the first player to the left of the dealer. The dealer then deals one card face up, known as the turn. There is a third betting round, where limits are doubled. The dealer deals a fifth card face up: the river. Then there is fourth and final round of high limit betting. >Players show their hands in clockwise order, beginning with the last player to bet or raise in the final betting round. Each player makes the best possible five-card poker hand from the seven available cards: the player’s two cards and the five face-up table cards, known as the board. This can be done in any combination. Are you ready to play?

3-CARD POKER>>Have you ever played a game of Three-Card Poker? The game is gaining popularity across the nation. It’s different than traditional poker and depends more on luck than strategy. For starters, each player receives three instead of the traditional five cards, so there are no Royal Flushes, Four of a Kinds, Full Houses, or Two Pairs.>There are two games in Three Card Poker:1) Pair Plus and 2) Ante & Play. Bet on one or on both games.>
Pair PlusThe Pair Plus bet is a straight payout depending onyour hand. The dealer’s hand isn’t an issue. You’redealt a good hand–you win.>Ante and PlayThe Ante and Play game is you against the dealer.First you’ll make your initial bet, the Ante. You’llbe dealt three cards and can decide to either playor fold. Keep in mind that if you fold, you not onlylose your Ante but also lose any Pair Plus bet youmade. So think carefully. If your Pair Plus bet wonanything, you shouldn’t fold. If you decide to play,
you must raise by placing what is called the Playbet, equal to the Ante. Now you play–no raises.The dealer must qualify with at least a Queen. If the dealer does not qualify, you win even money on the Ante and the Play bet is returned. If the dealerqualifies, here’s how the payout works: if you havea better hand, you win even money on both theAnte and Play bets; if you tie, both the Ante andPlay bets push; if the dealer beats your hand, kissboth the Ante and Play bets goodbye.>
BonusThen there’s the Bonus. If you have a Straight or higher, there is a bonus payout. This is paid whether or not the dealer qualifies. If the dealer qualifies, the play bet wins even money and the payout on the ante is based on the casino’s pay table. If the dealer does not qualify, the payout on the ante is the same as above but the play bet is returned. >Three-Card Poker’s popularity comes from the simplicity of the game. Since you are playing against the dealer, a camaraderie can develop amongst the players. Are you ready to play?
