These are the cards that are shown and are the cards referred to as the “showdown.” Then, each player makes a bet, after which the dealer deals a “burn card.” The players are then dealt three community cards, face up, and then the second betting round begins. After this second better round, another burn card is dealt and then another community card. Finally, another betting round is held. This is followed by one or two more betting rounds and then the showdown.

The showdown is the official name for the final hand. When a player makes their bet and all of the other players in the game fold, then that player is the game winner and is awarded the money in the pot. If two players, or more, remain, then that is the showdown round. Each player must play the best hand of five cards that he can get from the seven cards (the two hole cards and five community cards). If the best hand is shared by the two players, then the pot is split between the remaining players.

Texas Holdem :: Paying Tight-Aggressive Best Strat?

As Many may know by now, When Playing Texas Holdem, any semi-decent player will have a playing style that is tight and aggressve. This means that they will be aggressive and call often but they will only wager on the strong hands.

An expirence my friend Bill had will turn that theory upsideown. At a casino he frequented, A man joined the table Bill was playing at. As soon as he sat down he said he thought the man was ignorent and a pretty lousy player at best.

He raised most of the time no matter what the cards where. Each time he raised he rose at least $50. The strange part was that he was winning. he played very loose and amazingly aggressive. He played every hand. This man won agaist AA and other pairs with Unsuited low hands. It was an amazing sight to see.

Bill was playing concervative as always and he was doing pretty well until this man came to the table. Bill had KK and he had A6 in the last game and the man raised Bill. Of course at the time Bill had no idea what he had so…anyway, Bill thought he had it won with the great hand so Bill went all in before the flop to try and beat this guy. Big mistake for my friend. That ace hit the table and it was all over. That man won again.

I was astounded to here this story because it really does defy the laws of statistics and traditional holdem. makes you wonder about the way you play and the idea of “pro” playing. later Bill overheard the man talking about holdem. He was saying how every hand was a good hand… wow.

Well, That is something to think about…the new style of playing, loose-aggressive!
