Poker is a card game that uses a standard 52-card deck. It is a game of skill with many different types of variations. The most common type of poker is Texas Hold'em.
The game starts with players placing an initial bet known as an ante. Once the bets are placed, two cards are dealt to each player. The player must then decide whether to continue or fold. If they decide to continue, a further three cards are placed in the center of the table. These are known as community cards and can be used by all players. The players have the option to make additional bets and the dealer will place a further two community cards.
A player can win when they make the strongest combination of five cards from the seven cards they have available. The winner of the hand is the player that has the best five-card combination. The game ends when all players have either folded or gone all-in.
