Poker is a very simple game that can have very high stakes at the end of the hand. There are many different types of poker that one can play. Five card stud, No limit Texas Hold em and Omaha High Low are just a few of the variations that are available to a poker player. If youre someone who doesnt know the rules, here are some of the most commonly played variations and their rules.
In five-card stud, each player is given one card face up and one face down. The player with the lowest upcard (the card with the face up) makes a bet of either a full bet or half of the minimum bet(which is set by the dealer) to start the game. In a clockwise order, players may call on the opening bet, fold, which indicates they no longer play that hand or they can raise the pot. Cards are dealt until each player has a total of five cards. After the fourth card is dealt face up, the minimum bet is raised to double the original bet. Then the fifth card is dealt face up and followed by the final round of betting. The player with the best hand wins the game.
When playing Omaha High Low, you need to remember that this is a unusual type of poker, especially if you are accustomed to playing...
