HOW TO PLAY
No Limit Texas Hold 'Em is a fast pace high stakes poker game! The
objective is to obtain the best five card combination among a total of seven
cards with five community cards common to all players. The challenge is
that you’re sharing five of the seven cards with your opponents! “No Limit”
means that any player can go "all in" - bet all the credit they have - during
any round of betting. High stakes poker has never been so fun. So, let’s
get into the game.
Press the POWER ON button to turn on the game. As you begin a new
game, you have the option to play in TRAINER, TOURNAMENT or view
the GLOSSARY. Press the MODE button to scroll through all three
options and then press ENTER to select one.
TRAINER MODE
allows you to play a real game, view winning hand per-
centages of your first two cards and receive detailed HINTS about how
to play as you go along in the game. Once in TRAINER MODE, you’ll
need to select your PLAYING TYPE (LOOSE, AVERAGE or TIGHT). Use
the plus (+) or minus (-) button to toggle through the three options and
press ENTER to choose one. After you press ENTER, the game will
begin and you’ll receive hints in greater detail each time the HINT button
is pressed.
TOURNAMENT MODE
will test your skills in an actual World Poker
Tour™ Tournament with over 200 virtual players. As in a real tourna-
ment, you will not have access to HINTS and TIPS. However, if you
push the HINT button you will receive a generic message about playing
the game.
GLOSSARY –
The GLOSSARY is available at any time and all you have
to do is press the MODE button. After you’re finished reviewing, press
the MODE button a second time to go back to your previous screen.
The game play for either TRAINER or TOURNAMENT MODE is the same.
Except for the detailed hints and tips you receive in the TRAINER MODE.
All players start with 10,000 credits in the BANK. You will always play at
the same table; however, you will have players leave and new players
join your table as other virtual tables shut down. Depending on the sta-
tus of the game, you will have up to five opponents who will challenge
your ability to get to the next round. The dealer or player who is ON
THE BUTTON is randomly selected at the start of a game. Once select-
ed, this status rotates clockwise from one player to the next after each
round. The two players sitting to the left of the dealer or BUTTON
must pay BLINDS.
BLINDS:
Before cards are dealt, the two players to the left of the dealer
are required to post predetermined forced BLIND/BETS. The player
immediately to the left of the BUTTON must pay a SMALL BLIND that is
half of the BIG BLIND. The second player from the BUTTON must post
the BIG BLIND. Initially, the SMALL BLIND BET equals 100 credits and
the BIG BLIND or LOWER LIMIT BET equals 200 credits. As play con-
tinues, the LOWER LIMIT BET will increase which directly impacts the
value of the SMALL and BIG BLINDS. BLIND payments are automatical-
ly deducted from your BANK.
HOLE CARDS:
The game begins with all the players receiving 2 cards
face-down. Each player can only see his or her own cards. Press VIEW
CARDS to see your cards.
Experience a real World Poker Tour™ Tournament!
You’ll be in the hot seat as you battle over 200 virtual opponents. Card
turning and betting action is easy to follow as big screen play allows you
to track your opponents every move. As virtual tables shut down, only
the high rollers will survive as the best players make their way to the final
table. So, put on your best poker face and get into the game!
