1. Players ante up by placing a small, initial bet in the pot. The pot is typically just a pile of chips placed in the middle of the table.
2. The dealer deals each player five cards, placing them face down. Begin with the player to the dealer's left and deal one card to each player, going around the table until everyone is holding five cards.
3. Every player picks up their cards from the table and checks out their hand while not revealing it to other players.
4. Again, starting with the player to the dealer’s left, players begin placing their bets. Your options are to fold (give up on this hand, losing the chips you placed in the pot), check (pass on this round of betting), call (match another player's bet), or raise (increase the highest bet given so far).
5. When the betting is done, those who are still in the hand get to trade in one, two, or three cards from their hand for new (and hopefully better) cards. If a player has an ace, he can trade in the other four cards in his hand but it's a common rule that he must show the ace to everyone.
   Note: You don’t have to trade any cards. If you already have a good hand, you’ll want to “stand pat” and keep the cards you were first dealt.
6. After everyone receives their new cards, another round of betting takes place, starting to the dealer's left.
7. After the betting is completed, players show their hands. The best hand wins the pot.

The game continues in this manner. You can change dealers with each hand, moving around the table to the left.
