Now let's look how you deal Texas Holdem, start to finish. Let's say this white chip
is the dealer button. In a casino setting you'll see a button that says the work "Dealer"
on it. That indicates who is the theoretical dealer for the hand. Once we know where the
button is the small blind and the big blind are placed. For our purposes, small blind
is one chip, the big blind is two. Dealer will deal two cards to everyone including
the theoretical dealer which designated by the button. Now the small blind and the big
blind already have chips in the pot so the action passes over to the person to left of
the big blind. This person looks at their cards, decides they want to call the big blind
and so on. Everyone looks at their cards, decides if they want to fold, call or they
can raise. Here we got four players who are going to see the flop. Dealer makes sure that
the pot as we say "right." Then deals one card into the muck. This is called "burning
one" and then turns the flop. There's your flop.
