The Basics of Poker
- by adminspirit
Poker is a card game played worldwide. The basic concept is that players bet into a pot, hoping to make the best possible poker hand. If no other player makes a call, the winner is the person who made the highest bet. There are several variations of the game, but all involve betting rounds, cards, and a showdown.
Usually, a standard deck of 52 cards is used. In some games, a pack of jokers is added. Some games require the use of contrasting colors, such as reds or blues. Typically, the ace is treated as the lowest card, but this is not always the case.
Most variants of poker have a minimum bet or ante amount. A player who does not bet or ante at the beginning of the game has a “drop” position. These players may not play in a later round, but are not out of the game.
Players who make a forced bet, such as the ante, are said to be “checking” or making a “bet of nothing.” A “check” means that the player does not owe anything to the pot. However, the player can raise a bet if another player calls or if he wishes to continue playing.
The first player to make a bet is called the “first bettor”. This is a player who has the best combination of cards. If this person makes a bet, other players have to bet or match it to stay in the game.
After each round of betting, the dealer shuffles the cards. The dealer also has the last right to shuffle the pack. Cards are dealt face up, or face down, depending on the type of game. One card is given to each active player. The next round of betting begins with the two dealers remaining.
The highest hand, or “highest ranking poker hand,” is the one that wins the pot. Sometimes, the smallest hand, such as 6-4-3-2-A, is the one that wins.
Typical poker hands are ranked according to odds, which are inversely related to the frequency of a specific card. The five highest standard poker hands are: straight, flush, full house, three of a kind, and two of a kind. For the purpose of comparison, the highest five-card hand is a straight, which is five consecutive cards in sequence, but is not a suit. Straights are not the best hand to make unless you have wild cards.
Ties between identical poker hands are broken by a high card. If more than one player has the same hand, the ties are broken by the second highest unmatched card. Depending on the rules of the game, the high card might break the tie when there are no pairs, or the ace might be treated as the lowest card. Another way to determine the smallest poker hand is to look at the number of people who have the same card, and see which players have more pairs or straights.
