Betting is really what poker is all about. There wouldn’t be much excitement in the game if your only motivation to play is to have a better hand then the next guy.

The player does not put any money into the pot and is allowed to stay in the game. However, the checker is required to call or may raise any bet made by the following bettor, unless that bettor checks as well. Any bet by any player during a round of play must be equaled or raised by all players that have previously checked.
