Texas Hold’em is the most popular game played in casino poker rooms. Although playing expertly requires a great deal of skill, Hold’em is easily learned and deceptively simple. It is a subtle and complex game, typically played with nine or ten players to a table and is a faster, more action-filled game than Stud or most other games. Texas Hold’em is also the fastest growing poker game in the world, and it is the game used to determine the world champion at the World Series of Poker.
