In a game of Poker, there are a number of rules that determine the winners. If two players tie for high hand, the high hand is awarded the odd chip. If two players tie for low hand, the pot is divided as equally as possible. In this scenario, the player with the highest card by suit gets the odd chip. When the players have equal cards, the odds of winning are even. However, if two players have the same cards, the high hand will win the odd chip.

In poker, players are dealt two cards with different values: hole and nut. Hole cards are cards that are face down, and are known as pocket cards. The other card is called the kicker, which is a high card that was not used in the hand. A pile of folded cards is called the muck, which is also known as the burned or overcard cards. The nut changes throughout the game, and a player may have two overcards at any one time.

In a game of Poker, players can bet up to the amount of chips in the pot at any given time. During the betting phase, players may fold their cards or raise by the number of chips required to call. In a tie, the winning player takes the pot, and does not reveal their winning hand. Stakes are typically agreed upon at the start of the game. In some cases, a player may be able to fold his or her hand before the final hand is ranked.
