Each player gets two cards face down (hole or pocket) and one card face up (the door). Then begins the betting round! Dealer burns the top card (i.e. puts it face down) and deals with another up card, called 4th street. Then, new betting round proceeds with another up-card. Betting structure changes on fifth street where minimum bet doubles. The last up-card (6th street) is dealt by everyone with more betting. In the last round of betting, everyone has to show cards to declare the winner. This is called showdown.
