The rules for Texas Hold'em, as played by the Legacy Series, are quite simple:
1) Each player is dealt two cards face down.
2) After burning a card, three cards are flipped face up, these become commmunity cards.
3) After burning another card, one additional card is added to the community cards.
4) A final card is burned, and the final community card is flipped over.
Betting occurs between each occurence above, with the winner being the person with the best hand. Below is a listing of the possible poker hands.

The Best and Worst Hole Cards

Located below are the ten best hands and ten worst hands to have when playing Texas Hold'em poker. Players are advised to bet on the good hands and throw away the bad ones. Although you may get lucky once in a while, holding on to a low pair with 4 back and hoping to fill 3 of a kind will probably not win you lots of chips.
