The game of  Texas Holdem itself is easy. Online poker players are dealt two cards face down. These cards are for personal use. After a betting round, the dealer deals five community cards face up, which are available to all the players. Players can use any combination of their pocket cards and the community cards to form their best hand. The best 5-card hand takes the pot.

After each dealing round a betting round occurs. The players who play online poker act clockwise starting with the small blind. Only in the first betting round, called Pre-Flop, the first player to bet is the one who sits on the left side of the big blind.

The dealer is indicated with a round item, called dealer button. It also moves clockwise after each initial party poker game.
