There are many variants of the game, but all involve betting among players and require a certain amount of skill. The objective is to win the pot, which is the total sum of bets made by all players in a single deal. In most cases, the pot is won by a player with a high-ranking hand or by making a bet that no other players call.<\/p>\n<p>During each betting interval, one player \u2013 designated by the rules of the particular poker variant being played \u2013 has the privilege or obligation to make the first bet. Then, each player must place into the pot a number of chips (representing money) to make his contribution at least equal to that of the player before him. This is known as placing the ante.<\/p>\n<p>The value of a poker hand is in inverse proportion to its mathematical frequency: the more rare the combination, the higher the hand\u2019s rank. The highest-ranking hand is a royal flush, which includes a 10, Jack, Queen, King and Ace of the same suit. Other high hands include four of a kind and straight. Ties are broken following the rules of High Card.<\/p>\n<p>Poker is typically played with a fixed number of cards and a fixed number of players around a circular or oval-shaped table. Before the game begins, the initial dealer is chosen by dealing a single card face-up to each player in turn until a jack appears; the player receiving the jack becomes the first dealer.
