Poker is a card game where the goal is to win bets by collecting the highest possible poker combination, using 4 (the old classic version), 2, or 5 cards, or forcing all opponents to stop participating in the game. The game is played with fully or partially closed cards. The specific rules may vary depending on the type of poker. The generalizing elements of all types of poker are combinations and the presence of trade during the game.

Due to the fact that the player does not know the cards of their opponents, poker is a game with incomplete information, like many other card games, unlike, for example, chess, in which both players see the position of all the pieces on the Board.
