Dear All,

Did you know that participating in a poker forum can help you improve your own game?

It does not matter how many players there is left in the hand. The player that can pick out the BEST 5 CARDS win the pot. If two players have the exact same hand (for example TJKQ* is on the board (no chance for flush)and they both have an A) they split the pot.
I advice you to read a (if not many) books before you decide to play with real money...

Don't forget thought, the person who bet or raised last has to show their cards first. NOT the person who called the bet last.
I hate it when people say, "let me see what you got". No fool! I called you flip'em!

what happens is, the river card comes out and the person immediately to the dealers left acts, (bets, checks, whatever) and then everyone else acts (calls, checks, raises) the round of betting ends when everyone has acted, and all bets are called (or folded to)
You can have as many people in the hand as you like, still the best 5 card hand wins.
