Game Information
Think Poker is an exciting adaptation of the world famous poker game, Texas Holdem. Think Poker gives you a multitude of betting opportunities, allowing you to place bets at any stage of the game, both on your own player and the other players in the game.
How To Play?
Before any cards have been dealt, you can bet place a bet on any of the options that are offered. To place a bet, simply select your stake followed by the bet button. Your bet will appear in the 'Selection' area. If you change your mind, and as long as no cards have been dealt, you can remove your bet from the selection area and make another selection. To remove a bet, simply click the red cross adjacent to the bet. Note, once the bet has a status of P (Pending), your bet can not be removed.
You also have the option to view, or not to view your own, or the other players' cards. To view you own cards, click the 'Deal My Cards' button. You will note, that as the cards are dealt the odds will change, reflecting each player's chance of winning at that stage of the game. If you want to view all the player's cards at once, click the 'Show All Cards' button. If you only want to view a specific player's cards, click on the red button that is either to the left or right of the player's name, followed by the 'Show Cards' button.
To increase your chances of winning, you can also remove up to 2 of your 3 opponents from the game. This can be done at any stage of the game, but not if a bet has been placed, or if the cards have been displayed for the player you wish to remove. To remove a player from the game, click on the red button that is either to the left or right of the player's name, followed by the 'Remove Player' button.
There are 5 stages in a game of Think Poker, Pre-Flop, Flop, Turn, River and Showdown. You can place bets at any of these stages in the game, though should you wish to, you do not have to place a bet at any stage. If you wish, you can wait to just before the final hand is dealt before you place a bet. Should you choose to, it is also not necessary to play through all the 5 stages of the game. Up until the 'River' stage, you can choose to have all the cards dealt at once, which will end the game, display the result and payout any winnings. To do this, click the button, 'Play Out Hand'.
If you choose not to play out the hand at any stage, the game follows a set pattern. Whether you choose to bet before the cards are dealt, display the other players cards, or remove any of the players from the game, the next thing to do is click the 'Deal Flop' button.
Clicking the 'Deal Flop' button, will deal the first 3 of the community cards. You can now place further bets on the outcome of the game. Bets can be placed on which player will win the game, the hand with which each player will finish the game (Bet On Hand), and even more betting opportunities, which can be found under the 'More Bets' button.
You can bet on the value, suit or specific card that will be dealt as the turn or river. Additionally, you may predict what will be the highest or lowest card to be dealt in the flop, the total value of the flop and whether a specific card will appear in the flop. Further, you are able to bet on what you think the winning hand of the game will be.
The next stage will commence when the 'Deal Turn' button is selected. This will deal one more community card. Again, you can now place further bets on the outcome of the game. Note, as the game progresses, some betting options will become unavailable, this will be indicated by n/a (not available) been displayed next to the odds.
The next stage will commence when the 'Deal River' button is selected. If all the players cards have been dealt prior to this point, this will be your last chance to bet on the outcome of the game. Clicking 'Deal River' will deal the fifth and final community card of the game.
If not all the players cards have been dealt prior to selecting 'Deal River', there is one further opportunity to bet after the fifth and final community card has been dealt. This last betting opportunity is at the 'Showdown' stage. After clicking the 'Showdown' button the player with the best 5 card hand will be declared the winner. If you hover your mouse over your cards or any other players hand, you can see what five cards made up your hand.
If there is more than one winner of the winning hand bet, your payout for winning the game will be divided by the amount of winners.
