Well Holdem has the same rules in terms of hands, pairs, two pairs, straight etc etc...

The difference is that you only get two cards in your hand then 3 cards are turned face up on the table. Those are the community cards.

So with the two cards in your hand and the 3 up on the table you have a poker hand, there's betting and then another card get's flipped up on the table, more betting and a last card for a total of 5 cards.

Using the two in your hand and the 5 on the table you make the best 5 card poker hand you can. It's really a lot of fun.

not fixed, but people can rip you off unless you play 1 vs 1

So 4 of you start a 4 man game and wait for people to join? No wonder you're still slinging weed. :lol:

I've done some consulting for a online poker company. We weren't allowed to play at their or their client's sites, but I played a few times at some competitors.

Let me tell you one thing though - you will not be able to "fix" a game and make a lot of money. You may get away with it if it's at a very small scale, but all you'll ever get is pocket change.

We get together and play Texas Hold em regularly IRL though, every two weeks or so. Just $10-$20 buy-in, but it's great fun.

People play very differently when it's not real money though. Play money tactics won't work with real money and vice versa.

A few good friends of mine play for money online. One of which developed a horrible addiction worse than an ACTUAL poker addition.

They've made good money at times. But also lost big.
