Holdem Poker Rules
Texas Holdem – round One
- The first person to sit at a table becomes the dealer for the first poker hand bonus.
- A new poker game on an active table starts when the button rotates clockwise to the next online poker game player.
- The online poker game player next to the button / dealer is required to place the small blind. The small blind is equal to
half the lower stake. This is merely a guideline for determining the blinds rather than a strict
rule.
- The next holdem poker game player, to the left of the small blind, is required to post the Poker Big Blind, equal to the lower stake limit. It is sometimes acceptable for more than one online poker game player to post a Poker Big Blind in a poker hand, for instance when a new online poker game player joins a table at which a poker game is currently in process. The new online casino poker game player may get the option of placing a Poker Big Blind at the start of the next poker hand or may have to wait for his/her turn (this is indicated by the movement of the button).
Bets may be placed in any of the following ways:
– Bet, Call and Raise.
- Fold.
These options are subject to the action taken by the previous online poker game player. The first online poker game player (left of the Big
Blind) to bid (in the first online poker game round) would get the Bet, Call and Raise option. Subsequent online poker game players also get
the Call and Raise options. "Call" mean to bet the same as the previous online poker game player. "Raise" calls for raising
the bet/call amount of the previous online poker game player and can be calculated according to the value of the previous
bet.
