Unlike other poker variations in Texas Holdem there are community cards, which are common for all players in the game. Community cards are used by all players. They are used to form the best hand combination. When playing Texas Holdem each player receives 2 cards face down. There are five community cards, which are dealt down to the table. When the cards are dealt players make bets and then the dealer turns up 3 community cards. One more betting round follows. Then the dealer turns up one more community card and players make bets. The last card is flipped, a final round if betting ensues, and finally a showdown in which players make their best hands using their two pocket cards and the table's five shared cards. The winner is the player with the highest hand.
