How many of yah like to play poker? Texas Hold'Em is my speciality
![]() ![]() ![]() all that stuff down there, is the basics you prolly need to know, enjoy! POKER CHEAT SHEET Rank of Poker hands (best to worst): ![]() Royal Flush: Ace, king, queen, jack, ten all in the same suit. If anyone gets this hand, take your money and go home, because you're playing with a cheater. It's the hole-in-one of poker. ![]() Straight Flush: Five cards, same suit, in sequence. There's also probably cheating involved, but much less blatant. ![]() Four of a Kind: Same rank. ![]() Full House: Three cards or same rank; two cards of same rank. ![]() Flush: Five cards, same suit. ![]() Straight: Five cards, mixed suits, in sequence. ![]() Three of a Kind (or Triplets): Three equal-rank cards. ![]() Two Pair: Two sets of two cards of equal rank. ![]() Pair: Two cards of equal rank. ![]() High Card: Just what it sounds like. If no one has a decent hand - say, a flush or a pair - then highest card wins. If two players have an ace - a tie - go to the next highest card. ``````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````` Texas Hold'em: Each deal has 4 betting rounds. First each player is dealt two cards face down. On the next round three community cards, that all players can see and use, are placed to the table. On each of the following two betting rounds a new community card is added to the table. Each player can use his/her pocket cards together with the community cards to form the best possible poker hand. ````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````` BETTING: In most games, you must 'ante' something (amount varies by game) just to play. The cards are dealt, then players bet into the pot in the middle. At the end of the hand, the highest hand (that hasn't folded) wins the pot. Basically, when betting gets around to you (betting is typically done in clockwise order), you have one of three choices: Call: When you call, you bet enough to match what has been bet since the last time you bet (for instance, if you bet a dime last time, and someone else bet a quarter, you would owe fifteen cents). Raise: When you raise, you first bet enough to match what has been bet since the last time you bet (as in calling), then you 'raise' the bet another amount (up to you, but there is typically a limit.) Continuing the above example, if you had bet a dime, the other person raised you fifteen cents (up to a quarter), you might raise a quarter (up to fifty cents). Since you owed the pot 15 cents for calling and 25 for your raise, you would put 40 cents into the pot. Fold: When you fold, you drop out of the current hand (and lose any chance of winning), but you don't have to put any money into the pot. Betting continues until everyone calls or folds after a raise or initial bet. ODDS, I WANT ODDS Five Cards: Royal Flush - 1in 650,000 Straight Flush - 1 in 72,200 Four of a Kind - 1in 4,200 Full House - 1 in 700 Flush - 1 in 510 Straight - 1 in 250 Three of a Kind - 1 in 48 Two Pair - 1 in 21 One Pair - 1 in 2.4 No Pair - 1 in 2 |
