How to Play 3 Card Poker
3
Card Poker games are played with a standard
52-card deck. The cards are distributed in hands
of three, with cards shuffled after each hand.
Straights have a higher ranking than a flush, as
there are fewer ways to make a three-card straight. Aces can be either high or
low. There
are two bets a player can make that will influence
the game payout: Ante and Pair Plus. The ante
works as it does in conventional poker. This is
the "cost" of playing the hand. The Pair Plus is a
wager that the player will get at least a pair or
higher. Payout levels are listed in the table below. It is not necessary to make both
bets, but
players must make at least one. The player antes
by placing his/her bet in the "Ante" spot on the
table within acceptable table limits. Both dealer
and player are dealt three cards face down. The
player will determine whether their cards are good
enough to bet against the dealer or fold. If the
player folds at this stage, he/she simply loses
the ante. If the player decides to test his/her
cards against the dealer, he/she must place a
wager equal to the ante in the "Play" spot on the
table and click the "Play" button. If the player
wins the hand, the hand pays both the Ante and the
Pair Plus wager (if applicable). Note: the dealer
must have at least Queen High to qualify. Anything
lower is an automatic win for the player providing
the player has not folded.
