Flop

1 min read

In poker, the first 3 community cards.

In poker, particularly in Texas Hold'em and Omaha, the term "flop" refers to the first three community cards that are dealt face up on the table after the initial betting round. These cards are shared by all players and are used in combination with their own hole cards to create the best possible five-card hand. The flop is a crucial part of the game, as it can significantly influence the strategies and decisions of the players involved. After the flop is dealt, there is typically another round of betting before the turn (the fourth community card) is revealed.
