compulsory bets
Before you start to play Terminator poker you will need to place a number of bets. You are dealt two cards and the dealer is dealt two cards also. The two players placed in the far left and far right seats need to place their bets, the dealer has one card face down and the other card face up.
You are dealt five cards and the dealer is dealt five cards. The five cards dealt to the player are placed in the ‘community cards’ and are seen by all players. The objective of the game is to make sure that the five community cards are placed in a combination of five different suits. Some of the combinations are all the same, while others have changes to them. This is what makes the game exciting and the different options available to players to add to their fun.
The five community cards that are placed by the players can be in any combination of suits. However some combinations are exclusive to a single suit and so that needs to be specific placed in the ‘community cards’. You can only dabble in the community cards if you have chosen to bet on them. The five cards that are played by the first timers are put in the ‘ discard pile ‘and are seen by the players again when they want to play again.
The rest of the game is played exactly like poker, with the initial deal going around three times. The initial deal involves the replacement of cards in the middle of the table, which can be done by each player. When the replacement is through the deck, the high card is removed from the deck and the deck is then re-shuffled. The process is repeated for two cards. Then there is another round of betting.
The final round of betting is where the game is finished. Players are allowed to discard in certain situations if they feel it would change the result of the game. This is done to either make a better hand or tie the game. When a player discards cards, there is a risk that the rest of the cards could be changed by the dealer. This is something that is being watched very carefully for the highest ranks. The player does not know this, so is not sure if the discarded cards are going to hurt the dealer’s hand.
It is advisable to learn the ranking of all the possible card combinations before you play the game. This will make the learning and playing of the games a lot easier. Cards are ranked from the Ace, to the worst card in the deck. Playing guide for a High Card
In poker, the Ace holds a special place. It is the highest card, with an exception of the royal couple, which is an Ace and a King. It is the highest card in every possible order. Repeated counting of the Ace as the highest card will cause the Ace to be identified as the ‘High Card’.
