Hi my name is Ernie Crespo with Expert Village. Today I'm going to teach you the fundamentals of Texas Holdem. In this section I'm going to show you what the final outcome of the game is. We call it the showdown. The showdown is after all final betting is concluded and it's time now to reveal the players cards. As in our previous example the dealer card will be denoted by the white chip. If you are involved in this pot, showdown begins with the first person to the left of the dealer button revealing their cards. For this instance, our player will reveal a pair of nines. In this scenario the next player will showdown jack eight. In this hand, the following player will showdown ace jack followed by pair of three's and finally the dealer button will showdown six four. Showdown once again is the last round where all players reveal their hands. A quick pointer is to always wait until the dealer tells you that it's your turn to reveal your cards.
