- Very carefully
- Go to Cardplayer.com. They are the best poker magazine in the business. If you go into any major poker casino, you will find them.
- The other answerers have directed you to good links/books which I would definitely look into. What I'm going to do instead is give the order of hands in poker. Memorizing this list is an essential part of learning the game. There's a lot more to poker than memorizing this list, but this will give you a place to start. Best hand: the royal flush -- A/K/Q/J/T of the same suit. Next: the straight flush -- 5 cards in sequence of the same suit, such as 5/6/7/8/9 of hearts. Next: four of a kind, such as four queens. Next: a full house -- three of a kind and a pair, together. Example: 9/9/9/4/4. Next: a flush -- five cards of the same suit (five diamonds, for example). Next: a straight -- all five cards in sequence, such as 2/3/4/5/6. Next: three of a kind (called a "set"), such as three aces. Next: two pair (ex.: J/J/7/7/2). Next: one pair, such as two sixes. Lastly, no pair -- also known as a "high card" hand.
