You have to bet, call or raise after each round is dealt, if you wish to. Every time the dealer gives you new cards, you’ll have to make a bet, with the first bet solely based on the two cards you have in your hands already. All the players will do the same in clockwise direction.
The name Indian Poker is used for several games with this feature, played with different numbers of cards and different betting systems. The game has nothing whatever to do with India. The name comes from the notion that cards held to the players’ heads somehow resemble a Native American headdress or war bonnet.

A standard deck of cards has four suites: hearts, clubs, spades, diamonds. Each suite has thirteen cards: ace, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, jack, queen and king. Thus the entire deck has 52 cards total.
To call is to match a bet or match a raise. A betting round ends when all active players have bet an equal amount or everyone folds to a player’s bet or raise. If no opponents call a player’s bet or raise, the player wins the pot.
When suit ranking is applied, the most common conventions are: Alphabetical order: clubs (lowest), followed by diamonds, hearts, and spades (highest). This ranking is used in the game of bridge. Alternating colors: diamonds (lowest), followed by clubs, hearts, and spades (highest).

You take the aces out and lay them across the table first. Then you shuffle the deck and give each opponent half the deck (24 cards). Then each opponent counts 12 cards out of his/her deck and sets the other 12 cards to the side. You look at the cards one at a time, and pile them face up on the ace of the same suit.
A club card is a card issued by a retailer which allows the card holder to make discounted purchases. SIMILAR WORDS: frequent purchase card. The computer looks up the club price or the regular price depending on whether a club card has been scanned.
Spade. The spade represents a leaf of the “cosmic” tree, and thus life. Along with its companion suit, clubs, spades represent fall and winter and the power of darkness. In the Tarot, they symbolize intellect, action, air, and death.
