The positions in a heads-up poker game might be different than they are in a game with three or more ⚽️ players. Other than that, however, the rules for a poker game are the same, whether there are two players or ⚽️ more.

Can You Play Poker With Two Players?

Texas Hold’em, Pot-Limit Omaha, and every other poker variant can be played with two ⚽️ players. In Texas Hold’em, the dealer button is always with the player in the small blind.

The dealer/small blind player acts ⚽️ first preflop, but the big blind player goes first in all post-flop betting rounds. Heads-up play marks the only form ⚽️ of Texas Hold’em where the small blind is “in position” against the big blind.
