The rules of this game are as follows: each player has two cards, face down, and then five cards are dealt in the middle of the table, face up. These five cards are shared by all the players and are called “community” or “shared” cards.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoPlainText"><span style="" lang="EN-GB">When Texas Holdem Poker is played in a casino, the dealer’s chip is used. This chip is moved in a clockwise direction in the breaks between the games. It is very important because the dealer can close the circle bet, and this is a great advantage for his hand.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoPlainText"><span style="" lang="EN-GB">The main goal of the Texas Holdem Poker is - to build the best possible five card hand, using community cards that are combined with the players’ hole cards.
