All-In

When a poker player bets all of his chips in a single bet in No Limit Texas Hold Em

All-in! If you've ever watched poker on TV, the chances are you'll have been watching No-Limit Hold'em. And it's not just because it's the most popular game in the world. No-Limit means just that - there's absolutely no upper ceiling on the bet that you can make when it's your action, aside from the number of chips in front of you. Should you wish, you can slide all your chips forward, known as moving all-in.

Fleece your mates

Teach your friends how to play poker. The first few games can be a slightly painful process but once they're on their way you'll have a whole new group of people to play with. The level to which you want to fleece them depends on how good a mate they are.
