If the opponents check the poker betting or if they are betting moderately there is a possibility that they aren’t really certain that the cards they have could win the kitty for them therefore they aren’t betting too much money.
If a player thinks he has a good set of cards during the second round of betting then he should bet aggressively. This way the player could increase the kitty to a substantial amount, which would force the other players to pay to see the hand.
Example:
Opening deal:
Player 1: 7♥, Q♥, K♦, 5♥, 6♥
Player 2: Q♣, 7♦, 6♦, 5♦, 4♣
Player 3: 3♣, 3♦, 2♠, 2♣, J♠
Player 4: J♦, J♣, 7♣, 8♥, 3♠
Player 5: Q♠, Q♦, K♣, 8♣, 2♥
Player 6: 9♦, 8♠, 6♠, 4♠, 2♦
Wagers:
The bets are to the tune of Rs. One / Rs. Two. This is the usual rate at a small poker game. Anybody that can afford this amount is allowed to play here.
Player 1: Places a wager with a five flush and two high cards.
Player 2: Matches the bet with a five straigh.
Player 3: Increases the wager because he has two pairs.
Player 4: Matches the wager with a pair of Jacks.
Player 5: Matches the wager with a pair of Queens.
Player 6: Has nothing to play with therefore he quits.
Player 1: Matches the amount.
Player 2: Matches the amount.
