These bets are called blinds and provide an incentive for players to play. Once all the players have received their 2 hole cards, 3 more community cards are dealt face up on the table \u2013 this is known as the flop. This prompts another round of betting.<\/p>\n<p>If you have premium opening cards like a pair of kings or queens, bet aggressively!
