    Texas Hold Em!!

    Anyone here play Texas Hold em??? I love this game. It's so **** addicting. I've never played a card game with so much adrenaline especially when there's alot of money on the line. Playing with friends is the best because you learn to read and bluff each other out.

    Anything can happen in this game. You can be holding the best hand on the flop and someone else can draw a straight or flush to beat you.

    Get a bunch friends together, learn the game, and play it. You'll love it.

    I'm ALL IN!

    I play at partypoker too, but I dont use real money. I just get into the play money tables. I suck too bad to use real money...Playing every hand tends to do that to you.

    yeah been playing for a few years now, i prefer playing omaha hold em though.

    i've always liked the hold em games a lot more than draw poker.

    Ditto.

    I like being able to see at least a part of the other players hands.

    Anyone have a link to the official hand rankings??

    We need to know if you use a kicker with a two pair hand. For example, on the board :

    2d Ad Ks As Kc 5c

    Player 1 : Q 3

    Player 2 : J 3

    Obviously the best hand is two pairs, Aces and Kings. But do we split the pot or does Player 1 win with his Queen kicker?? When I play online, the pot is split with two pairs. When I play with my friends, they use a kicker with two pairs. What is the right way??

    What about trips? A kicker is used with trips right?

    Kicker takes effect on that hand.

    Kickers resolve any hand that is a tie. Yes it would be used on trips as well.

    Actually, that depends. If it's a short handed game (like 3 people or less), it's not so crazy to play those hands.
