In Poker, players make bets. To start a game, players must first ante (this is the amount they are willing to bet). Then they must bet into a pot in the middle of the table. The player with the best hand wins. This betting proceeds clockwise, until all players have either called or folded. The betting is completed in this fashion until the pot is empty. If there are ties in the pot, players will continue betting until all of the players have folded.

The best hand in Poker is a straight flush. A straight flush is a set of five cards of the same suit. When two players have a flush, the player with the higher card wins. Another hand that is considered a flush is a full house. Three of a kind is a hand of four cards in a row, while a pair makes a full house. Four of a kind is a strong hand, and a straight flush is even more rare.

A player with a backdoor flush wins when they hit all four cards of the same rank. A backdoor flush is a hand where a player has a statistical lead and hits the necessary cards on the turn and river. The player who has a backdoor flush is usually the one who has a large lead. A player who has a high pair or three of a kind is the winner in a hand. The player who is betting on a hand must have the best hand possible to make a winning one.
