Each player has a standard pack of cards containing 52 cards. The cards are shuffled before being dealt. Players may either deal the cards face-up or face-down.<\/p>\n<p>After the initial deal, players can begin betting in a clockwise rotation. The first player to make a bet is called the &#8220;first player.&#8221; This player is also called the &#8220;active player&#8221;. In some games, each player must place a certain amount of chips into the pot before he can make a bet.<\/p>\n<p>The players are then dealt one card at a time. They are then allowed to replace a card or shuffle the deck. The player with the highest card is the initial dealer.
