WHAT ARE YOUR CHOICES IN A BETTING ROUND?

 What are your choices in a bettin round?

  • Fold

If you don't want to keep on in the hand, you can throw your cards away and "leave" the current round.


 

  • Bet


When no-one before you has bet anything, you can do so on your own. You would say, for instance: "I bet 10 chips" and place your chips in the pot, so that anyone who wants to continue playing must match up your bet. If they don't, because it is too expensive or they don’t have a good hand, they can fold.

Betting all of one's chips is called heading all-in. Once you are all-in, you can't bet anything more, but also cannot be forced to fold any longer. Indeed, when you are all-in, you will instantly be in the hand until its end, giving you the chance to win by showing the best cards.


  • Raise

You can also raise a bet; for example, raise an opponent's bet of 10 chips to 20 chips. By doing this you are making the bet more expensive to call for anyone who would like to play on. If they don't want to pay additional, they have to fold.


  • Call

If someone before you has bet, you have the possibility to call this bet. For this you just pay whatever the cost of the bet was. If an challenger bets 10 chips, you would have to call 10 chips to stay in the hand.


  • Check

If no-one has bet yet, then you can check. This indicates you don't place any bets and let the next player act. It is like saying "I'll wait and see what happens"
