Texas Hold 'Em can be played
by two to seven players — either
human or computer. You may set
up any combination of people and
computer hands totalling seven as
long as at least one of the hands is
to be played by a person. Some
possible combinations are:
You play one hand and the
•
computer plays one hand.
You and a friend each play
•
one hand against each other.
You play one hand and the
•
computer plays four hands.
You and a friend each play
•
two hands against each other.
You, your friend and the
•
computer each play one
hand.
Any combination you can
•
think of.
REMINDER: At least one of
the hands must be set up to be
played by a person.
—Getting Started with
Texas Hold 'Em—
Setting the
Betting Limits
Before you play a game, you
need to set the betting limits and
the amount each player starts
with. The limits tell you how
much the bet is in each round.
During the first and second bet-
ting rounds, the lower limit is
used. The upper limit is used in
the third and fourth betting
rounds. For example, if the limit
was "10—20," $10 would be the
bet amount in betting rounds one
and two, and $20 would be the bet
amount in betting rounds three
and four.
Note: The first player to bet in
each round has the option of bet-
ting double the limit for that
round. If the first player checks,
the next player has the option, and
so forth around the table.
The limits that can be set are
10—20, 20—40, 40—80, 60--120
and 90—180. Press the
repeatedly until the limits you
want to use are displayed.
