Have you encountered Casino\u00a0Hold\u2019em\u00a0games, but found yourself unsure on how exactly\u00a0to play them? Read this guide for a detailed overview of the popular casino<\/a> offering and some advice about the strategies used within this\u00a0classic card game.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Firstly, it’s important to note that\u00a0Casino\u00a0Hold\u2019em\u00a0is\u00a0a purely luck-based version of Texas\u00a0Hold\u2019em\u00a0Poker<\/a>, in which a player faces off against a dealer. It follows the traditional multiplayer format, with the two players each receiving two hole cards before five community cards are dealt in the middle.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n The game is a straight shoot-out to see which player has the best hand with the cards available to them. Players use the cards they are dealt and the ones on the board to make a five-card hand. There is the option to fold or call after the flop has been dealt with, so there is an element of strategy involved.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Before you get started with Casino\u00a0Hold\u2019em, you\u2019ll need to have a basic\u00a0knowledge of how the game works. It\u2019s imperative that you know the rules before you begin, as otherwise, you won’t be able to follow the events.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Essentially, you will have access to seven cards, and the best five-card hand you can make with those will be up against the dealer\u2019s best five.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n If the best possible hand is made up of the five shared cards in the middle, you will get your bet back.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Knowing the order of hand values is crucial to playing this game. Here is a rundown from lowest value hand to highest:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n For further details, check out our in-depth guide to the rules of Hold’Em Poker<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n When you play Casino\u00a0Hold\u2019em, you have to pay an ante to receive your cards. After the flop has been dealt with, you then have a decision to make: you can either fold and lose the ante or call and have a chance at winning a payout on your ante bet and the amount you call.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Here are some key points to remember when deciding whether to call or fold:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Playing Casino\u00a0Hold\u2019em\u00a0is all about trying to predict what your final hand could be after all the cards have been drawn. You won\u2019t always hit a hand after the first three cards have been laid out. However, you may have what is known as a draw for a good hand.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n An example of this is when you have\u00a0king\/jack\u00a0suits as your hole cards. The flop is a rainbow board of queen, ten, and a two, for example. This is called an open-ended straight draw, where you need an ace of a nine to come out to make a straight.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n As it\u2019s a\u00a0multicoloured\u00a0board with no pairs or flush draws, you\u2019re drawing into the nuts as well. This means you\u2019ll definitely beat the dealer if one of those cards appears unless they have the same hand as you.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n When it\u2019s open-ended, you technically have eight cards in the deck that can make your hand. That means there\u2019s more chance of winning than if you needed an inside card in a straight.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n By looking at an odds chart from the classic Texas\u00a0Hold’em,\u00a0you can get an idea of how often you will make your strong draw. An out is any card you can hit that you believe will make you the winning hand.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Managing your bankroll is imperative if you want to enjoy playing Casino\u00a0Hold\u2019em. You should set yourself a limit and only play games with stakes that allow you to stay within your limit.\u00a0Personally, I like to play with at least 50-100 antes in my bankroll so that\u00a0my stack won’t fluctuate too wildly from hand to hand. I find this helps me from getting emotionally caught up in the swings of the game.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n If you set an amount that you can win or lose before you walk away, it will stop you from getting carried away. Remember to gamble responsibly, and the game should always be a fun experience.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Casino\u00a0Hold\u2019em\u00a0is popular for its simplicity and its accessibility. If you think you know all the hand types and can make a good guess about when you\u2019re on to a good hand, it\u2019s time for you to\u00a0start playing live games\u00a0today.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Previous:<\/strong> Holdem Poker Rules<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\nWhat is Casino\u00a0Hold\u2019em?<\/h2>\n
