may be formed, whether the high or low hand wins the pot in a showdown (in
some games, the pot is split between the high and low hands), limits on bets
and how many rounds of betting are allowed. In most modern carbon poker games, the
first round of 
betting
begins with some form of forced bet. The action then proceeds to the left.
Each player in turn must either match the maximum previous bet or fold,
losing all further interest in the hand. A player who matches a bet may also
raise, increasing the bet. The betting round ends when all players have either

showing his hand. If more than one player remains in contention after the
final betting round, the hands are shown and the winning hand takes the pot
