In poker, each player must make a bet by placing a chip into the pot. Then each player must raise by the same amount and drop the hand they don’t want. If a player has a winning hand, the pot is divided among them. The next player to raise may raise more than one chip at a time. The winner of a game is determined by the rank of the next card in the deck. If the player raises more than 14 chips, the pot is split evenly between the two players.
