One of the greatest selling points for Texas Hold'em is that it is one of the easiest poker variations to learn. Other variations, such as Omaha High, might require a statistician to follow all the statistical possibilities for cards. Texas Holdem is more straightforward, and as a result it is well suited for the point and click of Internet play. Here are the basics. First, players ante up, called posting the blinds. A tip here is to start low. Bet small at first and build gradually. Don't bet more than you have already earned. Each player is dealt two cards, face down, followed by another round of betting. The dealer then puts down three communal cards, face up, called the flop. These communal cards are used by every player at the table. Another round of betting follows and the deal flips one more card onto the table, called the turn card. Betting continues, sometimes doubling in amount. Finally, the dealer reveals the final card, called the river. At this point, players reveal their hands, using the five dealer cards and the two face down cards, or pocket cards. The best hand wins.
