Texas Holdem Rules

Texas Hold’em: The Rules

Texas Hold’em uses what is called a “dealer button” (a small disc) to indicate the theoretical dealer of each hand. After each hand is completed, the dealer button moves clockwise to the next active player. This player will be considered “the dealer” for that hand. In this way each player has equal opportunities to be in early, middle and late position.

Before the start of the game, Partypokergenerates a fresh deck of cards for the hand. We use a single deck of cards for each hand of poker, where a deck refers to 52 cards (excluding jokers). Partypoker uses a Random Number Generator (RNG) to shuffle each deck of cards for the hand.
The First round of Texas Hold’em:

The two players immediately to the left of the dealer button place blind bets to start the pot (similar in principle to an ante). The player to the left of the dealer button posts the “small blind” (usually equal to half the lower stake. At Partypokerthe small blind is rounded down to the nearest dollar. However, as it is just a guideline, the amount of the small blind could be set slightly differently).
The player to the left of the small blind is required to post the “big blind,” equal to the lower stake limit. All the blinds in Hold’em poker are considered live bets and the players who posted them will have the option of checking, calling, raising or folding when the betting returns to their position. Remember, the dealer button (and therefore the small blind and the big blind) move around the table clockwise after each hand, so each player will post the blind bets over time.

Once the blinds have been placed, two secret cards are dealt to each player (“hole cards”), after which the first betting round starts. The player to the left of the player who placed the big blind starts the betting for this round.
Each player now has the option to place his bets in the first round, which is set at the lower limit of the stakes structure. (For example in a $10/$20 Hold’em game, the value of each bet is $10 for the first round. Therefore, when a user makes the move “bet,” this is equal $10, and “raise” is $20…a raise includes a call on the previous bet placed and one additional bet.)
Bets can be placed by playing Bet, Call or Raise. These options are available depending on the action taken by the previous player. Each player always has the option to fold. The first player to act has the option to bet, call or raise. Subsequent players have the option of calling or raising. To call is to bet the same amount as the previous player has bet. To raise is to match the previous bet and increase the bet.
Every player participating in the hand should have equal amounts of money bet as the previous players (includes bets, calls and raises). Until the time all the players have placed equal amounts in the pot, the betting will continue. There is a limit on the amount and the number of bets a player can place during a betting round (four bets for limit games).
After the first round of betting is over, the Flop (the first three community cards) is dealt. The community cards are common to all the players participating in the hand.

World Series of Poker

The 2005 World Series of Poker event is scheduled to begin June 2, 2005 in Las Vegas and an estimated 7,000 players are expected to participate in the $10,000 buy-in, no-limit Texas Hold 'em main event. Anyone, regardless of gender or nationality can play in the WSOP main event as long as they are 21 years of age and can afford the $10,000 entrance fee

April 17, 2005 -- The 2005 World Series of Poker event is scheduled to begin June 2, 2005 in Las Vegas and an estimated 7,000 players are expected to participate in the $10,000 buy-in, no-limit Texas Hold 'em main event.

The event will be held at the Rio Hotel and Casino from June 3rd to July 15th, with the last two days taking place at Jack Binnions Horseshoe Casino in Las Vegas.

The buy-ins for the 2005 WSOP events range from $1,000 to $10,000 and most of the final tables are taped and televised by ESPN.

The World Series of Poker started as an invitational tournament in 1970. Jack Binion invited the best seven poker players in America to his casino in Las Vegas to decide whom Americas best poker player was. Johnny Moss won the 1970 WSOP title by actually being voted the best player by his playing companions.

The 1971 World Series of poker was played as a freezeout tournament, meaning one player had to win all the chips. Thirteen players participated and Johnny Moss won it this time fair and square with some brilliant poker play.

T. J. Cloutier has been one of the the most successful World Series of Poker players over the years and has finished in the money in over 30 events. He has won five first place gold bracelets and finished second twice in the main Championship event of Texas Hold'em.

Anyone can play in the 2005 WSOP as long as they are 21 years of age and can afford the $10,000 fee. If that is to much for your wallet than there is another way to gain entry. You can register to play in online World Series of Poker satellite Tournamentsand with some luck, win a 10,000 seat for only a few bucks!

World Series of Poker has become very popular in the recent years, especially since the 2003 WSOPChampionship, when Chris Moneymaker won 2.5 million dollars after qualifying through a 40 dollar online satellite tournament.

In 2004 there were 2,576 entries for the $10,000 No Limit Hold'em WSOP Championship and the prize money had increased to more than $49 million. Greg Raymer beat 2576 players to win the first price of 5 million dollars for a buy-in stake of $40 which also was won online.

The 2005 World Series of Poker will last for approximately 40 days and an estimated 10,000 poker players from all over the world will compete in more than 30 different poker games. The winner of each event will be awarded a gold bracelet and first place cash prizes ranging from $500,000 to $10,000,000.

Poker and Blog Spam

Online poker games and bonus codes. Poker online has drawn all the viagra and porn spammers into the world of online poker.Poker was and still is a very lucrative business but the spammers have turned it into somewhat of a blackball. Most people wont tell you that their online biz is selling viagra and now legitimate poker websites are having to fight to keep their heads above water due to poker spammers.Unfortunately, I happen to be one of those sites who cant keep good rankings by running an honest site.The spammers are using software to post thousands of links to blogs on a daily basis which in turn inflates their link popularity.

Google has yet to reward most of these scumballs because it takes so long to get a decent listing but the other big 2....Yahoo and MSN seem to be rewarding them almost immediately. You have to dig really deep on msn and yahoo to find decent sites on most of the popular keywords. You find sites like poker.kmux dot com which simply redirect you to empire poker affiliate page. They are slowly filling up googles index too but it seems to be a rather long process. The thing that bothers me the most is how they hide their identity. The sites are always hosted
in china and the whois info is always bogus. This is exactly why I'm building a legitimate gambling directory where you cannot pay to get in and it doesnt make any difference that you have 45,000 incoming links from spamming blog comments and guest books. Im also building a site where poker spammers websites are listed as sites not worthy of even a visit much less a link. Will this method work? Course not, but it will give me some satisfaction knowing that at least some of these lowlife have been exposed on primetime.

My wife says I take it wat too personal but i just cant stand it anymore. These guys have NO morals and really dont care how many people they piss off along the way. They just want rankings and will do anything to get them including stepping on thousands of toes to get those rankings. Do you know how long it would take to get 45,000 backlinks?? If you managed to get 10 a day it would take over 10 YEARS to
get that many links and yet they manage to get them in a couple of months. I guess this will not change as long as the se's continue to reward their efforts with good rankings but it seems to me that it would be fairly simple to add something to the algorithim that disregards all backlinks after say 2000 or 1500 or some other number. The average site can get this many quality links within 12 months with some reasonable effort. So keep your eyes out for the site to hit the net within a couple of months and we will start to expose some of these fuc*&ers. Ive even thought about putting bounty's for exposure but Im not sure that it would work either so if anybody has any ideas just let me know and we will try it out.

One more thing I have noticed here recently is absolutely none of my traffic is coming from yahoo or msn anymore although i still rank in the top 10 in both engines for some pretty good keywords. All and I do mean almost ALL of my traffic is coming from Google with a few sprinkles coming in from All the Web. Where is yahoo and msn's traffic actually going these days? Is it all going to ppc ads or are they simply clicking off into oblivion. Guess somebody is making money from the ppc folks but in the gambling and poker industry I really dont see how. They all say they dont accept ppc ads from gambling sites but yet they are everywhere and every search page always turns up ppc ads from gambling sites. Just because you have to click twice or three times to get to a poker download doesnt mean its not a gambling site. They have simply cheated the ppc folks too by submitting a page that promotes something like a free poker book and then throw in the affiliate links after their site has been accepted into the ppc search engines like overture and adwords.

Who says that?? I say that and although this is strictly my opinion if you do some digging on the subject you will find everything i said is absolutely true. It really is a shame that online poker is being dragged through the mud because of a bunch of stupid idiots who wont play by the rules
