Ultimate Texas Hold'em Poker is an exciting game in which your goal is to beat the bank. It gives a new twist to Texas Hold'em Poker. You'll have the ultimate chance to win!
Ultimate Texas Hold'em Poker is played with a standard deck of 52 cards. This poker variant can be described best as Texas Hold'em Poker - playing against the Bank. You and the Bank each receive two cards, they're called hole cards. In addition, the croupier puts a total of 5 cards in the middle of the table, these are called community cards. You and the Bank make the best five card poker hand with the hole cards and the community cards received.
A poker hand may consist of:
2 hole cards and three community cards
1 hole card and four community cards
0 hole cards and five community cards
With your bet on the Ante and the Blind (these bets have the same value) you play against the Bank. You can also place an additional bet on the trips. After you share the cards you may look at the two hole cards you received. Here you have two choices:
Check: You wait and don't place a bet on the Bet box.
Bet: you place a bet of 3 or 4 times your Ante bet on the Bet box.
After all players have made a choice, the dealer then turns over the first three community cards. If you still didn't place a bet, you again have two choices:
Check: You wait and place a bet on the Bet box.
Bet: you place a bet of twice your ante bet on the Bet box.
After all players have made a choice for the second time, the croupier then turns over the final two community cards. If you still didn't bet, you have two choices again:
Fold: you decide not to play and thus lose your bet on the Ante, Blind and Trips.
Bet: you place a bet of 1x your Ante bet on the Bet box.
