HOW TO PLAY
No Limit Texas Hold'Em is a fast pace high stakes
poker game! The objective is to obtain the best
five card combination among a total of seven
cards with five community cards common to all
players. The challenge is that you’re sharing five
of the seven cards with your opponents! “No
Limit” means that any player can go "all in" - bet
all the credit they have - during any round of bet-
ting. High stakes poker has never been so fun.
So, let’s get into the game.
Press the ON button to turn on the game. All
players start with 5,000 credits in their BANK. You
will always play at the same table; however, you
will have new players join your table as other virtu-
al tables shut down. Depending on the status of
the game, you will have up to five opponents who
will challenge your ability to get to the next round.
The dealer or player who is ON THE BUTTON is
randomly selected at the start of a game. Once
selected, this status rotates clockwise from one
player to the next after each round. The two play-
ers sitting to the left of the dealer or BUTTON
must pay BLINDS.
BLINDS:
Before cards are dealt, the two players to
the left of the dealer are required to post predeter-
mined forced BLIND/BETS. The player immediate-
ly to the left of the BUTTON must pay a SMALL
BLIND that is half of the BIG BLIND. The second
player from the BUTTON must post the BIG BLIND.
Initially, the SMALL BLIND BET equals 20 credits
and the BIG BLIND or LOWER LIMIT BET equals
40 credits. As play continues, the LOWER LIMIT
BET will increase which directly impacts the value
of the SMALL and BIG BLINDS. BLIND payments
are automatically deducted from your BANK.
HOLE CARDS:
The game begins with all the play-
ers receiving 2 cards face-down. Each player can
only see his or her own cards.
BETTING (FIRST ROUND) –
Considering the first
two players, left of the BUTTON, have already BET
by paying BLINDS, BETTING continues clockwise
with the third player. Players can BET, RAISE,
FOLD, CALL, RE-RAISE or go ALL-IN. When it
becomes your turn and you’ve chosen your action,
press the ENTER button to continue play. Once
every player calls or folds the next cards are dealt.
THE FLOP:
Three community cards are dealt face-
up on the center of the table. Players combine
these cards with their own hand to construct the
best five card hand possible.
BETTING (SECOND ROUND) -
Second round of
BETTING again starts with the active or not folded
player to the left of the BUTTON. Players can
CHECK, BET, RAISE, FOLD, CALL, RE-RAISE or
go ALL-IN. Once you’ve decided your action,
press the ENTER button to continue play and
when every player calls or folds the next card is
dealt.
THE TURN:
A fourth community card is dealt on
the table face-up.
BETTING (THIRD ROUND) -
Just like the second
round of BETTING, the active player to the left of
the BUTTON BETS. Players can again CHECK,
BET, RAISE, FOLD, CALL, RE-RAISE or go ALL-IN.
Once you’ve decided your action, press the
ENTER button to continue play and the next cards
are dealt.
The River:
One final community card is dealt on
the table face-up.
BETTING (FOURTH ROUND) -
Fourth round BET-
TING begins just like the prior round with the
active player to the left of the BUTTON. Players
can again CHECK, BET, RAISE, FOLD, CALL, RE-
RAISE or go ALL-IN. Once you’ve decided your
action, press the ENTER button to continue play.
Once all BETTING is complete the showdown
begins.
THE SHOWDOWN:
The players show their hands.
The best hand which is any five card combination
of the community cards and player’s cards WINS.
The POT will automatically be added to the win-
ners BANK. If two or more players have an equal
hand the game will result in a DRAW, and the pot
will be split evenly. If there is a SIDE POT(S), it will
be divided after the SHOWDOWN.
Note:
SIDE POT(S) occurs when a player does not
have a BANK large enough to CALL previous
BETS, forcing the player to go ALL-IN. The addi-
tional BETS, above the player going ALL-IN, will go
into a SIDE POT(S) that will only be won by the
player(s) who contributed. If the player who goes
ALL-IN wins, this player will receive the main POT.
The other players will evenly divide the remaining
SIDE POT(S). However, if a player wins who con-
tributed to a SIDE POT, they will win both the main
and any contributing SIDE POT(S).
Press the DEAL button to begin another hand of
Texas Hold’Em.
