Texas Hold’em is one of the most popular traditional poker games today…
one of the reasons is that “any two cards can win.” The same holds true for
the new Texas Hold’em Bonus Poker. The best “hole cards” (2-card starting
hand) sometimes will not win… and the worst starting hand (hole cards)
sometimes becomes the winning poker hand after all of the community cards
are exposed.
How To Play Texas Hold’em Bonus Poker:
Two cards are dealt to each player; Two cards to the dealer and Five
Community Cards are dealt face-up in the center for both Players and Dealer
to use in any combination (3, 4 or all of the 5 Community Cards may be used)
to make the highest ranked poker hand.
How the Betting works:
Each player uses his/her 2-card hand along with 3, 4, or all of the
5-Community cards to make the best poker hand!
Any two cards can win!
* No Player to Player competition.
* Each Player plays against the Dealer.
* Best Poker-ranking hand wins.
* Optional side-bet Bonus wager plays against a posted pay table (not the
dealer hand).
When a Player wins, the Player retains his/her Ante and is paid even money
on the Flop + Turn + River wagers.
When a Player’s winning hand is a “Flush” or greater, the Ante + Flop + Turn +
River wagers are paid even money.
All poker-ranked hands of equal value between the Player and the Dealer will
be considered a “tie” or “push” whereas no money will be collected or paid.
Players who have made an Ante Wager have the option to make a Bonus
Jackpot wager. Bonus Jackpot wagers are paid no matter who wins the hand
(Player or Dealer).

Poker Showdown
After the final betting round ends, "the showdown" occurs to determine the winner. The player with the best hand wins the pot except in the case when he goes all-in in response to a bet or raise and doesn't have enough chips to cover the bet. In that case, the player only wins the amount that he contributed to the pot. Any player who wins a part of the pot reveals his two hole cards to the rest of the players. The player who raised displays his cards first. If no players have raised, then the first active player to the left of the dealer displays his cards first.
The winning player receives the entire pot (except for players that go all-in and can't cover the bet or raise).

The River Card
After the turn betting round, one last card, called "the river," is dealt face up on the table. No more cards are dealt. Betting begins again with the first active player to the left of the dealer. He can either check, bet, or fold, with betting at a minimum of the higher blind level (Again, in a $2/$4 game, betting on the river would start at $4). Play continues clockwise around the table with each player given the same set of options (check, call, raise, or fold). When all players have either folded, called the last raiser, or put all of their chips in the pot, the betting round is complete. The river is also known as fifth street.
After betting concludes the showdown occurs.

What are Hole Cards
Hole Cards
After the blinds are posted, two cards are dealt face down to each player in clockwise manner around the table, starting with the player to the left of the dealer button. The player may call the big blind, raise any amount within the raise limit guidelines for the game, or fold and surrender his hand. The betting proceeds clockwise around the table and continues until all players have either bet the same amount of money or folded. In Limit games, bets and raises are restricted to one bet and three subsequent raises per round (on the initial deal, the big blind is counted as the first bet). In No-Limit games, you can raise from the big blind to all your chips ("all-in"). If no player raises the big blind by the time the betting returns to the player who posted it, the player that posted the big blind can either check (no additional bet), raise, or fold if he wants. If no players call the big blind, the player who posted the big blind wins the pot.
