I remember my babysitters teaching me to play when I was like 10 and we’d sit and play cards all the time. I can’t remember how to play anymore but it’s a fun memory 💜
Thank you, this video help a lot and I had a lot of fun playing it with my family I lost by going all out with a 8 hearts and 8 of spares and lost to my dad this video help me get far in the game
this is THE video that solidified everything to me. theres something about sitting in an actual poker table at a real casino that just makes everything i've learnt elsewhere click easily. i was very confused about the checking thing especially, until i saw this video. 11 years and it still holds up, absolutely timeless
One question: after the first round of betting, what should be the minimum bet of the first player in the new round? Like the game minimum or do you have to take the previous round into account? Guess the first one...
Usually double the amount of your initial ante. At least that’s how it works where I play. So if you bet $10 and then decide to bet on flop, your bet has to be double. So $20
It depends if u in a casino minimum let say the table is $10 minumum u can’t bet less then $10 has to be $10 or more Unless someone’s raise ur bet like $15 so for u will b $5 more 👍 & so on
I believe that you have to meet the big blind's bet or higher so if the big blind bet 10...you already threw in 5 so you have to throw in 5 more for the minimum.
This is the most informative video I've found! Thanks so much! I'm new to poker and trying to understand heads up holdem so 2 player. So I've started using red dead redemption on xbox as a training aid 😅 but I'm confused... I understand in heads up The small blind is posted by the dealer and big blind by the other player. Then the dealer opens the betting but... I have no idea why the opening bet option is $5cents I.e. equal to small blind instead of the big blind. I also get confused by the switching of turns I.e. big blind leading post flop and also use of checking and which player is leading. Can you please provide some information on how to play heads up so I can play against a friend!
I was saying at a home game two days ago that if you watch an older poker episode like when Raymer or Moneymaker wins, the show would always tell you the basic rules to NL Hold 'em. However if you watch a new one now like poker after dark, they do not and its up to you to learn the game. This video may get some views for newbs learning to play.
Regarding the raise rule where it must be at least double the amount of the big blind, is this only during pre-flop first round of betting or does that apply to every round of betting?
I’m novice to the highest degree and based off this video I have more understanding of the rules, betting, rounds etc. but what I didn’t get is how do the cards in a player’s hands correlate to the flop cards? So if the cards in my hand are a jack of hearts and a three of clubs I’ve no idea if that’s a good hand or bad, and idk how such cards would correlate to the flop cards.
The movie Casino Royal (Daniel Craig, 2006) brought me here. The key scene in the plot revolves around a high stakes 10 million dollar buy-in game of Texas holdem. To really understand and enjoy this wonderful movie better, I needed to understand Texas holdem.
Very well presentation. Very elagant and professional. Might want to slow down a bit, just little tip to enthise the viewer and enable easier learning from this production.
If the bet keeps going up, you evaluate your hand and make an educated guess if you have a possibility of winning, otherwise you fold so as not to lose so much. If you have a good hand, you go “all in” - you don’t have to match the raised amount. But if you go all in and lose, you are out of the game.
Can anyone answer some of my newbie questions please? I do not want to go to a casino and make a fool of myself. 1) must the blinds increase with time? Can I just standardise the blinds when I play cash games with my friends eg: blinds are always 10/$20. No changes throughout the game. 2) Player A (small blind) places $10 and player B (big blind) places $20. I’m next so if I want to raise, must I raise double of player B’s amount to $40 or I can raise to any amount eg: $21 , $29, $35 or any odd numbers? 3) Is it compulsory to have an Ante? How much should Ante be? 4) Who can check? After one round of betting where everyone “agrees” to placing a bet/raise you started? 5) Why are some blinds $10/25 and not 10/20 which is double? Thank you
1)if your not playing at a casino, then play however you want, although if you are, it depends how everyone else is playing 2) you can raise it to any amount the you are able to bid. 3) i think antes only happen if there arent going to be blinds, antes make sure that you are wanting to play that round and blinds are somewhat similar because you have to put in money or fold. 4) after everyone puts an ante in, or the 2 people do the blinds and everyone else puts in the minimum amount or more, the next round, you can start to check. Anyone can check but if someone before you puts in money, your only options are to fold, pay that amount, or raise. 5) i don’t know Im not the best explainer but hopefully this helps!
3:30 "the muck" why would a player give up without any community cards being placed yet?? If the strength of your hand depends on the community cards but they haven't been dealt yet so why would someone muck before that?
Assume a hand where you are 3 seats to the left of the dealer. This means you have not yet committed money to the pot, but you must make the first decision after the deal. You look at your cards and see 8 of spades and 2 of hearts. Can they win? Sure, occasionally. Do those cards give you favorable odds to win? Nope. Fold for free without a second thought. Otherwise, you are taking a bad gamble and will lose more often than you win. They are simply not worth the money it costs to call. In poker, you won't win every hand. Instead, try to maximize your odds of winning the hands you choose to play. That means choosing your starting cards carefully If you play every hand just hoping to get lucky, you are playing bingo not poker, and you will end up losing money in the long term.
Great vid, just a quick question. If the big blind is 1000$, is the minimum raise: "call" 1000$ and then actuall raise 2000$ or call 1000$ and then raise 1000$?
Supposing the BB is $2; and the next player decides to raise - the minimum raise is $4 - but decides to raise to $5, the next legal raise is to $8 as the difference between the BB and raise bet is $3. People often mistake raising with doubling the existing bet; the raise has a structure.
@@pokernewsdotcom Well my casino poker dealer friend is also teaching me so he clarified the 3 questions but one of them was: does the call size minimum change once a player raises it or does it stay the same amount from what the big blind originally bid?
Ignore Frame's reply. It is unhelpful. Let's say you hold Ace King. The 5 cards on the table are 6-7-8-9-10. You have a straight. The Ace King are not helping. Of course, EVERYONE has a straight, and if someone has a jack, they have a BETTER straight. If someone has Queen jack, they have the BEST straight (assuming no flush can be made.

Hey, I know what! Let's make a video where someone is talking and then play music at the same time! Oh, let's make it really interesting and make it music with words. That'll really get them!
I've played poker for 40 years. Texas born and raised. Texas hold'em is a horrible game. How it caught on...I have no idea. We play dealers choice of game and whenever someone says Tx hold 'em or OMAHA....everyone groans. Stud is the best game, even draw...and the subtle variations of them. We always play two deck choice. Dealer can choose a joker or non-joker deck and they are only good on Aces, straights, flushes...7 player 7 card stud...there isn't a better poker game on the planet. 5 card stud with a community card is great variation of the already bullet-proof 5 card stud game. 5 card stud is the poker players game. But in this version...First dealt gets 3 cards, the rest two. He chooses from those three the 'community card' and calls a high or low game. Low game jokers = 0. Each player then turns over one card, the rest dealt up for 4 total...1 down, 3 up...then using the community card. Draw poker we commonly do three betting rounds version. Open and TWO draw rounds, but your replacement cards are dealt face up. First round you can get two, second 1. If you don't take any cards...none are shown...for example. You can't take 4 or 5 cards in this version. 3 max. The price you pay for taking cards...is everyone gets to see them. Great game. With all of this said...we have to have 7 per table play and not LESS than 7. 7 players. Not 6 or 8 or more or less. 7. Exactly. No limit. Or they have to wait or we play dominos...lol. Someone says 'Texas Hold 'Em' we just ask 'em if they want to play blackjack or roulette. Texas Hold'Em...ain't poker. Never was, never will be. Farce.

Having the dealer Judys rotate allows for an even spread of positions at the table.

There's a whole section that was left out....what hands are available in poker and how they rank.

This is really helpful thx 🙏
I'm in Vegas now and saw $15 minimum Texas Hold Em game and needed a refresher.
Regarding the raise rule where it must be at least double the amount of the big blind, is this only during pre-flop first round of betting or does that apply to every round of betting?
Raises must be in increments of the big blind throughout the hand.
Really great video
I’m novice to the highest degree and based off this video I have more understanding of the rules, betting, rounds etc. but what I didn’t get is how do the cards in a player’s hands correlate to the flop cards? So if the cards in my hand are a jack of hearts and a three of clubs I’ve no idea if that’s a good hand or bad, and idk how such cards would correlate to the flop cards.
Does that mean that the round of betting is reopened?
This helped a lot
So if I have quite a bit less money than other people, and they keep raising, it basically blocks me out of the game? Unless I go all in?
Basically,yes. You either have to call (equivalent)or raise (minimum plus what you want to raise it to) the bet.
What happens if the last person in the round of betting raises?
