Poker is a card game played by a group of players. Players place bets in increments of chips (or other units of value) to win the pot, which is the sum of all bets made during a single deal. Each player has one or more cards that are dealt face up, and the players try to assemble the highest-value hand possible. The highest hand wins the pot. Depending on the type of poker, the hand can contain any number of card ranks, from 1 to 14. In most forms, the turn to bet and deal passes clockwise around the table. After each deal, any player may shuffle the cards and offer them to the player to their right for a cut (if that player declines, the shuffled cards are passed to another player to their left).<\/p>\n
A good poker hand contains at least three card of the same rank, and two other unmatched cards. A full house is made of 3 matching cards of one rank and 2 matching cards of another rank, while a flush contains 5 consecutive cards of the same suit.<\/p>\n
