How to play ultimate texas Hold'em

An ultimate texas Hold'em hand

The dealer will deal each player at the table two cards, then five community cards are revealed. The players bet once based on their hands and then 3 times as the community cards are revealed.  The player with the best hand at the end of the round wins the pot. 

OBJECTIVE

The goal of Ultimate Texas Hold’em is to have a better hand then the dealer at the end of the round. Unlike regular Texas Hold’em the pay out depends on the the bets you’ve placed and when you placed them.

POKER PRO TIP: Poker gets easier with practice. Don’t get frustrated and try to follow the flow of the game, but be careful with your tells!

BETTING

In Ultimate Texas Hold’em before the round begins the main bets are called the ante and the blinds. In order to make these bets you have to bet both. The second type of bet is called a trip, it pays out if you have a 3 of a kind or better, the amount depending on how good your hand is. 

 

Once the round has begun you have the option to raise once during the hand. After the dealer has turned over the last community card you either have to raise now or make a bet equal to your ante bet or fold your hand.
