Texas HoldEm Poker
Texas HoldEm Poker is the enormously popular game in which 2-10 players receive two face down cards and five face up Community Cards. Texas HoldEm consists of 4 Betting Rounds. Throughout the game each player receives 2 facedown "Pocket Cards". 5 face-up "Community Boardcards" are placed in the center of the Table, to be shared by all the players.
No Limit Texas HoldEm Poker
No Limit Texas HoldEm Poker is a riskier version of Texas HoldEm in which any player may bet as many of his chips at any time as he wants.
Omaha Poker
A community card poker game with similarities to Texas HoldEm. In Omaha Poker, each player receives four cards of their own (opposed to two in Texas Hold'em), but unlike Hold'em, where players may choose to play either zero, one, or two of the cards in their Hand, in Omaha players must use exactly two of their cards. Omaha Poker is frequently played in a high-low version.
Omaha Hi Lo Poker (Omaha 8 Poker)
In Omaha Hi Lo poker the pot is split between the highest and lowest hands. It is possible to have a hand that wins both, for example, A-2-3-4-5 is a straight, but is also (in most forms of high-low poker) considered the lowest possible hand.
7 Card Stud Poker
7 Card Stud Poker is a well-known poker game in which players get three face down cards and four face up cards. You play the best five of those seven cards.
7 Card Stud Poker Hi Lo (7 Card Stud 8)
7 Card Stud poker Hi Lo is just like regular 7 card stud, except that the pot is split between the Hi hand and the Lo hand. For Lo hands, straights and flushes don't count but the highest of your low cards must be an 8 or below.
