Step 7 - Time for action!

1. Check

2. Bet

3. Call

4. Fold

5. Raises

Decision time! The player has five choices of action – call, bet, check, fold or raise. These are defined as follows:

• Call – this means matching a previously made bet.
• Bet – this means wagering a sum of money.
• Check – this can only be done if there are no bets in play and in doing this, the action moves on to the next player.
• Fold – this means dropping out of the pot and not wanting to call any made bets or raises.
• Raise – this means increasing the wagered amount.
