Check- This option is available to players who does not want to bet but would stick around. It can only be done when the betting option is not yet used.

Raise- You may use this term “raise” if you would like to bet something more than the last player.
Fold- To avoid losses or to minimize the loss, you may always use the term “fold” and leave the game, it means you give up.

In this position, players who are fighting to survive have the option to replace 3 cards from the 5 cards and the changing is done from the remaining cards kept in the middle of the table face down. You are not allowed to see each others card, not even the discarded cards.

The game goes on until “raise” option becomes invalid and except one, all the players gives up.
