The rules of Texas Holdem are broadly the same for all players, regardless of the device or online casino they choose to play from. That being said, there are certain rules that Gibraltar players need to be aware of before playing.
Gibraltar is one of the few countries in the world where online Casino games of chance are legal and therefore, there are certain regulatory rules that Gibraltar players must adhere to while playing.
Each game of Texas Holdem starts off with each player being dealt two cards. These cards, known as āhole cardsā, are the only cards that each player will see during the entire game.
After the initial cards are dealt, the first round of betting begins and each player is given the option to either check, bet or fold. When checking, the player does not have to put anything into the pot, however when a player bets, they must put an amount of chips into the pot that is equal or greater to the amount of chips a previous player has put in. When a player folds, they give up their hole cards and are no longer eligible to win the pot that is in play.
Once the first round of betting is complete, the dealer will deal three community cards which can be used by the players in order to make their best hand. After each player has had a chance to assess the community cards, the second round of betting begins and continues until all players have had an opportunity to check, bet or fold. If two or more players remain after the round of betting, the dealer will deal a fourth and fifth community card (known as the turn and river) and the players can then make their best hands and decide who takes the pot.
