Texas Hold’em is a version of poker which requires a standard 52-card deck of playing cards, a set of poker chips and a dealer button to play live, or a computer and internet connection to play online. The deal passes to the next player to the left (who was small blind last hand) and a new hand is dealt. Note: In some rare cases in Texas Hold'em, the five cards making up the board will actually be the best hand, in which case everyone left in the hand divides up the poker.
