General Texas Holdem Rules

To indicate the dealer for each hand Texas Hold'em uses a dealer-button. After each hand is completed the button moves clockwise to the next active player. Before the game starts Empire Poker will generate a fresh deck of cards for the hand. A single deck of cards is used consisting of 52 cards without any Jokers. To shuffle the deck a Random Number Generator is used (RNG). Texas Holdem is 4 dealing rounds (2 private down cards, 3 community cards, 2x1 community card) and 4 betting rounds. Every betting round players have the opportunity to fold (quit), raise (increase the bet) or call (follow the bet of the previous player). Each betting round can have 4 bets (1 bet and 3 raises).

The poker hand is created out of the 2 private cards and the 5 community cards.

- 0 private cards and 5 community cards

- 1 private card and 4 community cards

2 - private cards and 3 community cards

After the final betting round the player with the highest value poker hand wins the pot.
