Problem - Betting Structure Check
=====================
I highly appreciate MOZ, for his ability to make us understand poker in a layman method.
I hope this time again i would get some more tips alongwith the solutions for the problems
posted below..

Thanks for ur earlier reply MOZ. :))

!!SOME MORE QUERIES REMAINED UNANSWERED!!


PORBLEM - 1 (Texas Holdem)
There are five players 1,2,3,4,5.
Plr1 - SB
Plr2 - BB

Now the bet sequence for bet round is 3,4,5,1,2
FIRST BET ROUND
-
SECOND BET ROUND
Plr 3 - CHECKS
Plr 4 - CHECKS
Plr 5 - BETS
Plr 1- CALLS
Plr 2 - CALLS

*but as per rule Plr 3 and 4 would also be asked for their bets before this bet round ends*
Plr 3 - CALLS
Plr 4 - CALLS

Now as we can see that betting was turned back to Plr 3 and Plr 4 who were first in bet sequence.
But in this round the betting actually happened in 5,1,2,3,4 sequence.
So in next round onward what would be bet sequence 3,4,5,1,2 or 5,1,2,3,4?

Moz: Exactly right

Moz: On the next round, the betting sequence begins again with player 3. For a particular hand, the betting sequence is always the same. In your example, the betting sequence really did begin with player 3, it was just that player 3 and player 4 both chose to check. Player 5 wanted a bet in the pot, so he opened, which is why the betting came back to players 3 and 4. In any case, in Holdem, the actual betting does not affect the betting sequence on any given round, only the dealer puck determines the sequence.
