Rules
Texas Holdem is the most played version of poker in the world. It is also simple to learn and play. Explaining poker by text isn’t ideal – so we have just provided a short overview to help. Our best advice is to download the game and practice on the free play version! There’s no better way to learn to play then by free practice!

The basic concept of poker is to win the chips (cash) by making the best hand possible from the cards available. You can play tactically, bluff, play your opponent, or simply ride your luck – You decide!

Texas Holdem uses a standard 52 card deck, and the cards are ranked as follows: Ace, King, Queen, Jack, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, Ace (Aces count as both high and low). There is no strength in the suits of the cards, they are equal.

The aim of Texas Holdem is to create the best five card hand possible out of the cards you are dealt, in accordance with the appropriate hand ranking from high to low.

You will see a maximum of 7 cards as follows.

A player is dealt two ‘hole’ cards, followed by 5 community cards that all players share and are displayed in a specific sequence: the ‘flop’ (3 cards at once), the ‘turn’ and the river. A round of betting is carried out after each of the four rounds: pre-flop (when each player has only their two hole cards), post-flop, turn and river. Once all betting is completed, there is a “showdown” where the best poker hand by a player will win the pot. If a player decides to fold at any point before showdown, then the last remaining player will win the pot.

Poker hands are ranked as follows, a royal flush being the best:
- A royal flush (A K Q J 10 same suit)
- Straight flush (i.e. 4 5 6 7 8 same suit)
- Four of a kind (i.e. K K K K)
- Full House (i.e. KKK QQ) 3 of the same + 2 of the same
- Flush (i.e. 3 4 5 8 10 all same suit, any order)
- Straight (i.e. 4 5 6 7 8 any suit in order)
- 3 of a kind (i.e. Q Q Q)
- 2 pairs (i.e. KK QQ)
- 1 pair (i.e. KK)
- High Card (i.e. Ace)

Blinds

Texas Holdem has forced bets to make sure there is action and money in each and every pot – these are called the blinds. Otherwise, a player could fold until every time until they had the best possible hand. They are named blinds as a player must enter the pot ‘blind’ and commit chips before they ever see their hole cards. The blinds will rotate around the table and come in the form of a big blind and a small blind – a small blind is approximately half the size of the big blind. The blinds ensure that there is always money in the pot that may be won on each and every hand.

Payout
If you win the poker pot, you will then be paid the pot total minus a standard rake (very small percent retained by the casino).

However, in Texas Holdem it is not unusual to have two hands that tie for the winning hand. A tie may occur primarily because players are sharing cards (every card that is on the board – flop, turn, and river). When players have the same winning poker hand, the pot is simply split between them.

A Side pot

If a player does not have enough chips to cover a bet, a side pot is then created. Remember, in Texas Holdem, everyone must contribute to the pot equally. Don’t worry however, in the case of side pots, mFortune casino will calculate these automatically for you.

How to Bet
Betting is easy in mobile poker – you simply click / press the button for the action you would like to take:
- To bet, simply click bet and click on the amount you want to bet
- To call, click call and you will call the player who has bet
- To raise, click raise and enter the amount you would like to raise
- To check, click check (continue without betting any more money)
- To fold, simply click fold

The Texas HoldEm game style at the centre of the offering provides full scope for a competitive Artificial Intelligence that keeps the player on his or her toes with some challenging moves, improving skills and providing entertainment at the same time.

Glu Mobile’s AI presents five opponents in each match, each with a different level of skill and aggression, making for a more rounded game for pokerheads. The presence of the ‘tells’ that are so much a part of the game is also attempted, but not through the actual player avatars. Instead,  a question mark or exclamation mark appears over the avatar to signify weak or strong hands at random, giving the experience an additional tweak.

The mobile poker game also includes a strength meter which appears each time new cards are dealt in the form of a five bar indicator that lights up to show how the strengths of the customer’s two cards (and the cards on the table, if they have been dealt).

The annual event is held at Caesars Palace Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, NV from March 4th to March 7th and will be televised in a 6-episode series beginning April 18th on NBC.

“I have recently had eye-surgery so I have been able to play a lot of online poker while recovering,” Ramirez said. “I am so excited to play against many of the people I watch on TV. I am a huge poker fan. I first registered in October and now I’m going to Las Vegas to play against the pros for a chance at $500,000! It’s just unbelievable…this is a once in a lifetime opportunity!”

The final tournament started slowly for Ramirez who kept telling himself that he had learned how to be patient playing on the Zen Gaming Network. “I was card dead for about an hour,” he noted. “I just assumed I was out of luck when I turned it around and doubled through twice.” The tide-shifting hand was later when Ramirez, with about 50,000 chips, raised with A-K on the button and was pushed all in by the big blind’s A-Q. Ramirez’s hand held up, he established the chip lead, and never relinquished it.

Ramirez road gets tougher. He will face stiff competition at the NHPC, as some of the world’s best known players will be in attendance including 11-time World Series of Poker Champion Phil Hellmuth, 7-time bracelet winner Phil Ivey, and former NHPC winners Chris Ferguson and Huck Seed. The single-elimination, bracket-style tournament is modeled after the college basketball championship. Players who win a match advance to the next round, the player who wins six matches in a row is crowned champion.

“We wanted to add a wild-card entry into this year’s competition,” said Mori Eskandani, President of POKER PROductions. “We loved the software platform and introduced it to NBCSports.com who joined the Zen Network shortly thereafter. This contest has provided Americans the chance at fame, fortune and access to high-drama poker action. Dan has demonstrated through his online play that this year, he could be a force to be reckoned with.”

About Zen Gaming:

The Zen Gaming Network offers a proprietary poker software platform to provide free-to-play competitive online contests that are US-legal. Players at its National League of Poker Site (www.nlop.com) and other Zen partner sites never pay any money to play, opting for a free ‘advergaming’ environment where prizes are underwritten by sponsors and advertisers. In 2009, Zen awarded over $750,000 in cash and prizes to its network of players and partners as well as becoming a Top 10,000 site according to industry traffic-tracking source Quantcasttm.

About the National Heads-Up Poker Championship:

After its heyday in the truly Texas dark dens Texas Hold’em was brought to Las Vegas by none other than Crandell Addington, Roscoe Weiser & the likes of Doyle Brunson. The poker game was just called hold‘em at that time. The curious sixties gave away to the rocking 90s when the game made a thumping impact on almost all poker quarters across North America & Europe.
Texas Hold’em, a community card game, uses a format where each player can use a combination of the five community cards and his own two hole cards to make a poker hand, contrary to other poker variants like stud or draw where every player holds a separate individual hand.
Texas Hold’em, like all other Poker variants, allows an individual to compete for a sum of money collected by the players themselves (known as the pot). As the cards dealing happen randomly, it is beyond the control of the players, & each player tries to control the amount of money in the pot based on the hand the player holds.

The game comprises of a series of hands or deals; at the end of each hand, the pot is given away to one player (one exception could be when the pot is divided between more than one player). Such a situation arises when there is a tie at showdown between a couple of players or the winner has already folded and abandoned any claim to the pot.
Texas Hold’em is a sound strategy game with riveting twists & turns. It has inspired many strategists across the world to tame the game with certain formulae. Every time the wild Texas spirit has made the game a paradise of uncertainty. The Texas Hold’em uses both small and big blind bets. The small blind is usually played by the competitor to the left of the dealer position and the big blind is to the left of the small blind. This game is for those who have the mathematical aptitude for the game and strategy always drives them to do better.
Texas Hold’em’s bludgeoning popularity worldwide is definitely credited to a synergy of factors. Online poker, Online card rooms, frequent television appearances have indeed made it a phenomenon which made us hero worship this chilling mind game. They say “Beat them at a game of Texas Hold’em and beat them good”
