No Limit Holdem Poker Is Now Available On Webcam Poker Sites

The most popular variant of poker is No Limit Holdem Poker, and now you can enjoy live poker action at home via a webcam. When you play Web Cam Poker online at one of the many online poker rooms offering live dealer games it's just like playing at your favorite local card room. It works by providing a Web Cam feed over a secure server from a real poker room with a real live dealer dealing poker hands to to each player over a their own personal secure feed. Basically you are playing real poker, in a real poker room, just over a secure webcam. Pretty simple stuff right?

OK so now that you understand how playing poker over a webcam works lets go over how the game of Texas hold'em is played so you can get started!  

It is called "No Limit" because the amount a player can bet at any point during the game sequence is as large as the amount of money, or poker chips, the player has.

The game starts by giving two cards to each player, and the pot consists of a small blind and a big blind. These blind bets must be placed by the two players to the left of the dealer, before the first two cards are distributed to everyone.

After this, the fun starts. A betting round "pre flop" allows players to either call, raise or fold their hand. A call bet in the pre-flop stage matches the big blind bet, and players can bet larger amounts that must then be matched or exceeded as the betting goes around. Ultimately, when all players have paid to be in the pot for the next round, the "flop" is dealt.

The flop is initially three community cards, which players compare to their hands to see how good their prospects are.

Another betting round takes place, the player to the left of the dealer button acts first and most check or bet. Every player left in the hand most either call the first to acts bet or check if no bet has been made in front of them. Again the betting goes around until everyone is either in or out, then two further betting rounds take place - the fourth community card is called the "turn" and the final community card, the "river" is then played. The betting at the river is the final opportunity to try to take the collected bets in the pot without showing cards (everyone else having folded) or, at the final stage, a showdown takes place.

The ranking of hands, which can be made from any five of the seven total cards, run from the best - a royal flush consisting of ten to ace of the same suit - to the worst, a high card hand with no pair.

The winner takes all the money, unless the hands are the same rank, in which case there is a split pot.

No limit holdem is a great game when played using a webcam simply because of the legitimacy that a live dealer affords. You can learn more about poker here, and for more on other webcam casino games checkout Webcamcasinos.net
