The hole cards are the first four cards dealt to you before the flop. All 4 cards must be hole cards.

sorry i may sound dumb here lol but still dont understand any easier way to explain this

[Homer]

When the game starts the dealer gives you 4 cards. Yours are face up other players are face down. These are commonly called hole cards. The flop is the first 3 cards the dealer lays in the center of the table. They are also known as community cards.

To get the rising star badge all four cards in the hole must be the same. Ex: four 7's

You can not use any of the community cards in the middle of the table to obtain the badge. All 4 cards must be the ones that were originally dealt to you in the hole.

Is this the badge that most call the Shooting Star badge? I always read that being associated with Omaha Poker, but the Shooting Star badge was a challenge for Panda Pai Gow. Confusing.

[MonkeyBoy]

No the shooting star badge was a weekly challenge for panda paw on jan 19th this 1 is called the rising star badge which is a game award badge but i think u got to b really luck to get it

[Agent Jones]

I know, I'm saying everyone talks about the "shooting star" badge in reference to Omaha Poker - so I'm asking if that's just a very common mistake, or there's another shooting star badge besides the Panda Pai Gow one I don't know about.

[Homer]

It's just a common mistake. The badge is called Rising Star. ;)

[Agent Jones]

Alright, thanks  ;D I was so confused.

[Homer]

Your welcome. :)

I think I referred to it as the shooting star badge, because the badge looks like a star shooting.  But it is really called the raising star badge, and yes it is very hard to get.
