Poker is a card game that is played with a standard deck of 52 cards. The object of the game is to score points by making combinations of cards that add up to specific values.
The player with the most points at the end of the game wins.
There are many different variations of poker, but the basic rules are the same. You and your opponent each start with a hand of five cards.
You then bet any number of chips (money) on your hand, and the other player either calls or raises your bet. The first player to discard all their cards loses the hand.
If you have a higher hand than your opponent, you can try to win the pot by making combinations of cards that add up to specific values. For example, you might try to make a straight (five consecutive cards of the same value), flush (a full house, where three cards are of the same rank and two are different), or four-of-a-kind (four cards of the same rank).
