ONLINE POKER: HAND RANKINGS
|
How Do You Win?
The winner of each hand is typically determined in one of two ways:
1. Showdown: The player holding the highest-ranked hand when all cards are shown.
2. Uncalled Bet: The player who makes the last bet that no one else calls, winning without needing to show their cards.
