How to play Poker

From Wikiversity

The following refers to the Texas Hold 'Em form of poker:

The dealer deals the cards, one at a time, starting with the player to the left, and continuing clockwise round the table until all the players have 2 cards - but because there is no actual dealer moving around the table, you will see a white object know as the dealer button. This is passed around to the left and signifies where the dealer would start.

After the first round of betting the dealer will place 3 cards face up on the table, know as the flop.

After another round of betting the dealer will turn one more card face up on the table know as the turn.

Following that, another round of betting will commence and the dealer will place one more card face up on the table, known as the river.

Once this has been completed the player with the best combination of cards or hand takes the winnings or the pot.
