3 Card Poker

This is quite an easy game to understand and if you like poker then you will love this. You can play two separate games - "Pair Plus" and "Ante" (there are 2 games in 1). As a player you can choose to bet on either on just one or both. In the Pair Plus game, you are simply betting that your three cards will have a winning combination, regardless of what the dealer has. In the Ante game, you are betting that your hand will beat the Dealer's.

 

PairPlus

You are dealt three cards and will get paid according to their value – the payouts are not dependant on the dealer's cards. There is also no raising or discarding.

 

Ante Bet

In the Ante game, you are betting against the dealer.

After viewing your three cards you need to decide to either:

 

  1. Make a play bet and place an additional amount equal to the ante bet, or
  2. Fold, losing the ante bet and any Pair Plus bet.

 

If you decide to raise then you will go up against the dealer's hand. If the Dealer does not have at least a single queen, he does not qualify and you win twice your Ante bet and get your play bet back.

 

Here are the possible outcomes:

 

  • If the dealer does not have Queen high or better: Ante wins 1 to 1, play bet is returned
  • If the dealer does have Queen high or better and the player's hand beats the dealer's hand : Both the player and ante win 1 to 1
  • If the dealer does have Queen high or better and the player's hand is equal to the dealer's hand: Both Play and ante push (the player's ante and play bets are returned).
  • If the dealer does have Queen high or better and the player's hand is worse than the dealer's hand: Both Play and ante lose
