			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>< << Texas Hold Em</strong><br />
If the action of poker was synonymous with one type of game, the action would be in Texas Hold Em. With up to ten people playing at once, Texas Holdem is arguably the most popular poker game in the world. Players are dealt two cards each (called the hole cards), and five community cards are dealt by the dealer, with a round of betting preceding each new community card. Players need to make the best five card poker hand out of the five community cards and two hole cards. Note that you do not have to use the two hole cards in your hand. You can use both, only one or none of them. </p>
<p></strong><strong>< << Omaha </strong><br />
Similar to Texas Hold Em, Omaha is a community card poker game where players are dealt four cards (called the pocket cards), instead of two as in Texas Hold Em. The Dealer then deals five community cards, with betting rounds preceding each newly dealt community card. Players must make the best five card poker hand using two of their pocket cards and three of the community cards. </p>
<p></strong><strong>< << Omaha Hi Lo </strong><br />
Omaha Hi Lo is one of the most challenging versions of poker played across the globe. Using the same dealing structure as Omaha, Hi Lo is different as the pot is split by both the highest and lowest hand. A low hand does not qualify if it beats an 8. If none of the hands qualifies as lowest then the pot goes to the highest hand. You can use different cards for the two hands, and it is possible to be both the highest and the lowest. Remember you must use two pocket cards and three community cards to construct a hand, however you may use different cards to create a high and low hand. </p>
<p></strong><strong>< << Seven Card Stud </strong><br />
The most popular of the stud poker games and a close second to Texas Holdem in popularity, Seven Card Stud is a high betting game that rewards skilful players who crave a challenge. Each Player is dealt three cards, two face down (called hole cards) and one face up (called up or door cards). Rounds of betting precede the Dealer giving each player three more up cards and one more down card. A final round of betting occurs after the last card, and the Player with the highest five card hand wins using any five of their seven cards. </p>
<p></strong><strong>< << Five Card Stud</strong><br />
The classic poker game, Five Card Stud Poker is one of the oldest games. Players are dealt one card face down (the hole card) and one card face up (the up or door card). Players then have a betting round before the dealer gives out a new up card. Once players have five cards there is a final round of betting, and the Player with the highest hand wins the pot. </strong></p>
