How to Play Texas Hold’em Poker
Texas Holdem is a poker game that is played with two cards dealt to each player and five community cards. The objective of the game is to make the best five-card hand from the seven cards available.
The game has been around for hundreds of years, but it wasn’t until 2003 that it became popular as an online poker game. The first ever Texas Holdem tournament was played in 1970 and it was won by Amarillo Slim.
