The 15-in-1 Casino Plug & Play offers popular Limit Texas
Hold 'Em, with blinds at $5 and $10 and limits at $10 and $20.
Blinds are advance bets (automatically placed for the two play-
ers to the left of the dealer) that rotate to the left with each hand.
Limits dictate how much can be bet at different points of the
hand. In this game, $10 is the bet amount in betting rounds one
and two, and $20 is the bet amount in betting rounds three and
four. The goal of Texas Hold 'Em is to create the best five-card
poker hand possible using your two Pocket or Hole cards (the
two cards dealt to you) and the five community cards dealt
throughout the hand.
Your position is the player at the bottom left of the screen,
and you deal first (indicated by the yellow and white Dealer but-
ton to the bottom left of your cards). The cards are automatical-
ly dealt; yours are the only two face up. The betting round
begins when the first player (human or computer) makes his
play. When it is your turn to bet, a red icon flashing the word
