Whichever player has the highest hand by the end of the showdown round wins the entire game, thus, wins the pot.

From there, the dealer is selected according to the clockwise pattern of the playing table. Texas Hold’em poker games may start with a blind bet or an ante. From there, the player that is to the left of the dealer is to place what is called a small blind bet into the pot. The player to the left of that player is to place the second blind bet into the pot, which is called the big blind bet. At the final betting round of the game, all players that are still in the game must reveal their final hand. Whoever has the highest hand, wins the poker game of Texas Hold’em.
