How to Play Texas Hold’em at BWINPH
Texas Hold’em is played with a standard 52-card deck (no Jokers). The objective is simple: form the best five-card poker hand using two private (hole) cards and five community cards.
Step 1: Place Your Bets
To begin, players must make an Ante bet. Optional bets include the Bonus Bet, which pays out for strong hands starting from a pair of Aces, and the Casino Razz Bonus, which is based on the lowest possible five-card hand using your two cards and the first three flop cards. A straight flush from Jack to Six wins; a straight flush from Ace to Five earns the top 200:1 payout.
Step 2: Cards Are Dealt
Two face-up cards are dealt to the player, and two face-down cards are dealt to the dealer. Three community cards are placed face-up on the table (the “Flop”). At this point, your potential hand combination is shown on the screen.
Step 3: Call or Fold
You must now choose whether to Call (continue playing) or Fold (exit the round). Call means you double your Ante bet to stay in the game. Fold means you forfeit your Ante, but you can still win the Bonus or Casino Razz bets if you placed them. Note: If you don’t act before the timer runs out, your hand will be automatically folded, and a message will display “Auto Folded.”
Step 4: Final Cards and Reveal
After decisions are made, the final two community cards (“Turn” and “River”) are dealt, and the dealer’s two cards are revealed. The dealer needs at least a Pair of Fours to qualify. From there, each side forms their best five-card hand using their two cards and the five on the table.
Outcomes & Payouts
Dealer does not qualify: Ante bet pays out (based on the payout table), and the Call bet is returned to the player. Dealer qualifies but loses: Ante bet pays according to the payout table, and the Call bet pays 1:1. Dealer qualifies and wins: Player loses both Ante and Call bets. Tie: All main bets are returned. If the player and dealer have the same hand type, the higher-ranking cards determine the winner. If needed, the Kicker card (the highest unpaired card not used in the main hand) breaks ties.
