Texas holdem poker online

Texas holdem is played where every player at the table is dealt two cards faced down. A round of betting occurs which leads to the flop. The flop can be and is read differently by different poker players. Usually an average poker player see's a flop and if they have a high pair they will bet or call someone elses bet. This is good so far.
Then comes the turn. The turn is a major factor in deciding if you will have the winning hand or not. If the card is higher than your pair, then you need to watch out as someone who was calling to see the following cards (a fish) could have caught a pair.
The final card is the river, after there river there is a round of betting. After this final round of betting each player reviels their cards to the opposing player and who ever has the better hand takes the pot.
Texas Holdem is quite an easy game, but can be very stressful, especially online when you cant seem to get a decent hand no matter how many times you view a flop.
One thing you need to avoid in Texas Holdem is other players slow playing good hands and convincing you that you have the better hand, then they flip over there good hand and rake the pot.
