A fast and exciting Poker game. The object is to get a Three Card Poker hand with a value higher than the Dealer’s. Three Card Poker is, as the name suggests, a variation of poker, similar to 3 card brag. To play, place your bet in the Ante and/or on Pair Plus.
In Three Card Poker, the dealer only “qualifies” with a Queen-high or better. If the dealer’s hand is lower than Queen-high (e.g. Jack-high, 10-high), they don’t qualify.
In that case:
- Ante bet pays according to the ante bonus rules (or even money if no bonus applies).
- Play bet is returned (a push).
If the dealer’s hand does qualify (Queen-high or better), then the dealer’s hand is compared against the player’s:
- If the player’s hand is higher, both ante and play bets pay 1:1.
- If the dealer wins, both ante and play bets lose.
- Ties are a push.
HOW TO PLAY
- Three cards are dealt face down to each player. After all the cards have been dealt the Dealer will pass you your cards to view.
- If you have placed an Ante bet, once you see your cards, you can either fold (forfeit the ante) or place a play bet equal to the ante on the play box to stay in.
- If you believe your hand will not beat the Dealer’s, or you do not have a Pair or better, then you can fold and your Ante and/or Pair Plus bets will be collected by the Dealer.
- You may also play the Prime bet. In order to do so, you must play either the Ante or the Pair Plus, or both. The Prime bet will win if all your cards are the same colour.
- Once all Players have placed a play bet or folded, the Dealer will turn their cards face up.
RULES
- To qualify, the Dealer must have a hand of at least Queen high. If the Dealer does not qualify with a Queen high, then all Ante bets are paid along with any winning pair plus, prime and ante bonus bets.
- If the Dealer qualifies and your hand beats the Dealer’s, then your Ante and Play bets are paid at even money. The Dealer will then pay any winning Ante Bonus and Pair Plus bets.
- Should the Dealer’s hand beat your hand; the Dealer will collect both your Ante bet and Play bet. However, Ante bonus and Pair Plus bets will be paid at the odds listed on the table.
