A question about the "official" rules of hold'em, BIg Ryan, 1. Oct 2002 22:40
    View ( Message | Thread )       Return to Thread List
When playing Texas Hold'em Poker with the official rules (not house rules mind you) do you have to play the 2 cards dealt to you in the blind in your final 5 card hand? This is a big argument amongst a few guys and myself. Where are the pros? Give me an official answer.

Hi Ryan

No....You play your best five card hand which may include 0,1 or two of your hole cards! There is a seldom played version of hold'em in which you MUST play both of your hole cards!
