At the end of the flop, the pot is reduced by the pre-flop bet you had made, and the first player to the left of the dealer is deemed the winner. This is where many variations of Texas Hold'em start to become interesting. If you bet and are out of money at the end of the flop, you may want to wait another round and idn poker try to get in on some action. Sometimes, the first player to the left of the dealer will be dealt a low hand, and this is when you can try to steal a pot from behind. The problem here is that you have to wait for your opponent to reveal his hand, and if you are holding a big bet after the flop, you may be out of luck if your opponent decides to hold on to his cards and you miss your chance to capitalize on it.
