A. Here, you have the option to try to bully any remaining
opponents by entering a large stake, signifying that you
feel you have a strong hand, or try and make them believe
that you do.
B. You may also need to wager an amount of money merely
to stay in the game.
10. Once the final round of betting is finished, all remaining
players automatically reveal their cards. A combination of
your hole and the community cards forms your hand. The
player with the best hand wins the pot.
At each stage of betting you can decide whether you wish to
remain in the game. Should you decide to stay in the game,
the amount of gold needed to remain in the game will be
automatically allocated. You then decide whether you want to
raise this amount as part of your betting tactics. If you do not
wish to raise, you simply pass the betting onto the next player.
