Texas Hold'em is the world's standard poker variant where players receive two private hole cards and share five community cards to construct the best 5-card hand. Play proceeds through four distinct betting rounds: Pre-flop, Flop (3 cards), Turn (1 card), and River (1 card), governed by blind positions and table action rules.

Uno is a 108-card shedding game governed by official Mattel standards. Official rules strictly prohibit stacking draw cards (+2 on +2 or +4 on +4); affected players must draw and forfeit their turn. Players may legally finish on action cards, and a Wild Draw 4 may only be played when holding no cards of the active color.
