In Texas Holdem, the initial step is to get the game started, and for this the competitors put out a certain sum of cash. ‘Posting the blinds’ is the frequently used phrase for this play. In the next step, the dealer shuffles the cards and deals two cards face down to all players. A normal deck of 52 cards is used in the deal. Then there is the initial sequence of betting. This sequence is usually known as a "pre-flop".

Following the 1st wagering sequence, the first card of the deck is tossed aside. This thrown away card is the "burn card", and this is performed to ensure there is no treachery. The next 3 cards are then flipped face up on the table. These cards are ‘the flop’. Now comes a 2nd round of betting, after that the dealer throws away another card and flips 1 more card onto the poker table. After this, players can utilize the sixth card to create a 5card poker hand.

A further sequence of betting happens, and in a good many styles of poker, here is where the bet size increases. There is another round of tossing aside a card, and a last deal of a card face-up on the poker table. This is called the "river". Gamblers can now employ any of the five cards on the board, and/or the 2 cards in their hand, to assemble a five-card poker hand.

To finish it up there is a further sequence of wagering. Then, all the remaining players begin to show their hands. This is known as the "showdown". Obviously, the player who holds the greatest hand wins. When gamblers have equal hands a sharing of the winnings is used.
