How do you scam in poker?

you don't you can't you shouldn't

And that said...In the old days, there were many ways of cheating at cards, including fixed decks, cold decks, shiners, strippers, mechanical devices and a variety of dealing and slight of hand tricks. As these all can be spotted and all require a lot of skill, they've pretty much gone to the wayside, to be replaces by: Collusion CheatingCollusion cheating occurs when you have one or more partners involved. The simplest way is for your partner to simply and covertly inform you of the contents of their hand, and this small amount of information can sway the odds enough to make a difference.

This form of cheating is very hard for the house to detect, and harder still for individual players.

Is Texas Hold-Em a sport?

I guess, kind of. It is popular right now... and the popularity might fade and be replaced with another type of poker. But if the popularity lasts and doesn't go away, then people probably won't call it a fad... they'll call it a classic. :)

Another opinion

Texas Hold'em has been around for a long time, I was dealing it in Las Vegas 30 years ago, it recently became hugely popular because of the WSOP tournaments shown on TV. In a way it is a fad, in another it is already a classic.

How do you play poker with 2 people?

Technically you play it the same as if you are playing with 6 or 9 people.

The dealer distributes each player 2 cards (assuming you are playing Texas Hold'Em). The dealer is always the Big Blind.

Other then these rules, the game runs in the same way as 6 or 9 handed poker.

Everything else is the same. Just deal cards to 2 players instead of the amount you usually play with. It is also known as heads-up.

Is Chinese poker the same as poker?

Chinese is a game is played with four players but can be played three handed or heads up. Each player is dealt 13 cards from a standard 52-card deck. Players must arrange their cards into three poker hands: the front (three cards), the middle (five cards), and the back (five cards). Straights and flushes do not count for the front. The back five cards must be the strongest hand of the three, the middle five must be second strongest, and the front three must be the weakest. Another way to play is to have the middle hand be played with a deuce to seven lowball hand (with the best hand being 7, 5, 4, 3, 2). Once arranged, the cards are then placed face down on the table until all players have set their hands. Players turn the cards face up, and the money is awarded in terms of "points".

Points are the stakes at which the game is being played and can be set at any amount. Each player compares their hands to each individual player. The players compare corresponding hands. Players win two points if they win two out of three hands and additional points are often awarded for winning all three hands against your opponents, which is called getting "scooped." When players tie hands there are different ways of scoring. For example if one player wins two hands and ties the third they win 3 points instead of the normal 4 for scooping. Another aspect of the game is royalties, which are automatic rewards for making certain types of hands, such as straight flushes.

Does A K flush beat an A Q flush or is it a split pot?

The first one, for instance A-K-Q-J-2 will beat another suit of A-K-Q-10-9 because you disregard highest ties until you find whose highest untied card is higher.

Same thing, with, for instance, straights. A 2-3-4-5-6 straight beats an A-2-3-4-5 straight etc.

If you're playing Texas Hold-em, or another variant where you have more than 5 cards in play per person, only the best 5 cards are evaluated, so if the common cards showing are A-A-A-A-K, then it doesn't matter what other "extra" cards a player has. In cases like those, you'll split the pot.

What are the best poker playing cards?

It is said that when playing poker if you can't figure out who the mark is, it is probably you. If you show up to a poker game with your best pair of poker dice it is fairly certain those who you are playing poker with will know who the mark is. Poker is as much skill as it is chance. In fact, those who are really good often win with no hand at all. Poker dice can be a fun game of chance, but it isn't poker. You could never win a game with a losing hand with poker dice. In that regard, one pair of dice is as good as any other.
