So how does the betting work? In most games you must at least ante something just to get cards dealt. When all players have received cards you have 3 options. To call means to make a bet, which at least matches the previous bet. The Raise option means that you make the highest bet on the table. After you call the other amount it is basically up to you how much you want to bet. Let's take the example from above: somebody on the table raises a dollar, you have to call him with a dollar and then you can raise whatever you want. In some casinos there is a raising limit, which can’t be exceeded. You can fold. In this case you lose your bet and any chance of winning the pot. If it is evident that you will hardly be able to form a good hand you’d better fold.
