The dealer begins the game by dealing two cards to each player; this round is known as the ‘Pre-Flop'. The two cards dealt by the poker dealer are placed face down on the table – these cards are called the pocket or hole cards.

well as 2 hole or pocket cards per player. Considering the current choice of cards in their hand and those open on the table, the players again place their bets. This round is known as the ‘Turn'.
In the final round before the ‘Show-down', the dealer places the fifth and final communal card on the table, face up. And the players begin betting. This round is known as the ‘River'.
