PHP Texas Holdem Poker - Programming Contest

Poker is everywhere these days, the web booming with poker sites, new TV channels are popping up and book stores have hundreds of books on the game (or sport as it's sometimes called now). To add to this I even got a Texas Holdem Poker set for a Christmas present :) - but I only play for match sticks just for fun, real money gambling is a mugs game.... right?. OK and now to the contest at hand....

Basically you should create a game script using PHP as the server-side language. Texas Holdem rules should apply (see below for information on finding the rules of game play). Your script must allow user interaction to complete the game as per the rules; it should include shuffling the deck, dealing of cards, bets, and calculate the winning hand. You can make it multiplayer or single player (i.e. one human player and the computer as player two). The betting rules are not strict; you can choose pot limit, no limit or any other common betting rules.
