Poker is a game of skill known to most people in the world. A wide number of international tournaments, World Series of Poker being one of them, promote the image of poker as a glamorous and highly-prestigious game. The first World Series of Poker was help in 1970- it was an international poker tournament organized for best poker players in the world and it was organized by a Las Vegas casino owner Benny Binion. Since then WSOP has become the main event in the world of poker with thousands of talented players coming to Las Vegas every year to compete against the best players whose name is familiar to anyone who knows something about this game. A typical poker games (in spite of the varieties) uses a 52-card deck of cards. It’s very useful to know the standard rules of poker that come from tradition and experience, at the same time there can be certain "house rules" that can apply depending on where you are playing and who you are playing against. In many cases, especially if you are playing in some casino, the money you have is traded for chips that are used to actually play the game. This is thought to be more convenient as it allows estimating the amount of money one person has, which is useful in determining your strategy. When the game is over the chips earned are traded for cash – the process called cashing out. Knowing the terminology used in poker is equally important, as it is used a lot during the game both by players and the dealer. Such terms as "bet", "blind" (bet placed by player to the left of the dealer), "check" (betting nothing), "bluff", "buy-in" (the amount of money you have to pay to enter the game), "fold" (dropping out of hand), "showdown" (showing of cards by all remaining players at the end of the hand), "raise" (increasing the amount of the best) and some other ones are the terms that you will need to play the game without causing any problems to other players. Poker hands ranks are based on the odds against drawing them – the rarer the hand the stronger it is considered to be. Royal Flush is the rarest of all hands on poker and that is why it's considered to be the most prestigious one. This elusive hand is unbeatable. Betting limits can apply or not apply depending on the game. Fixed limits poker games are most common, when each subsequent player that raises is supposed to raise by a certain amount (for example, 10 dollars). Spread limit is another possibility, and if the bet limit of 1-10 dollar it means that the raise can be made by any amount within this limit.
