Texas Hold ‘Em – The Basics

The Turn. The Flop. The River. These are NOT gymnastic moves or driving directions. These terms all play a big part in Texas Hold ‘Em poker.


Everybody is playing about Texas Hold ‘Em poker. There are high-stakes tournaments, Texas Hold ‘Em tables at the casinos, poker leagues, and Friday night standing games. If you don’t know how to play (or the nuances of the game), you could feel left out.


NO problems – super-player Mitch Augarten is here to help you learn the basics from poker hand rankings and the play of the game to Texas Hold ‘Em terminology and betting basics. Want to play more, you will also learn about recreational poker leagues in the Delaware Valley.
