Texas Hold'em is one of the many variations of poker. In all poker games, money is wagered On the outcome of each hand, but each variation of poker has its own structure for dealing cards, betting, and awarding the money wagered. Winning money is the object of all poker games. Without monetary stakes, poker is a meaningless game.

Poker combines elements of both skill and luck. The structure of the game determines the extent to which skill is more of a factor than luck.
