3 Card Poker demo game & rules
3-card poker is very popular among gamblers. It differs from standard poker by varieties of bets and the number of cards.
To play Three Card Poker one standard 52-card deck is used. Cards are shuffled after each round of the game.
The first thing you need to do is to place a bet called ante, after which you will receive three cards in your hands. Now you have two ways:
1. You can fold your cards in a pass. If you do so, you will lose your ante bet. 2. You can make a second bet, the same size as the ante.
If you have chosen the second option and decided to continue the game, it's the dealer's turn. To continue the game, he needs to have a combination with queen or better. If this condition is not met, then this means that the dealer has "no game" and the player automatically wins.
If you and the dealer have the same type of hands, the hand that consists of the highest value cards wins (for example, three kings beat three queens; a flush from a queen, jack, 10 beat a flash of 10, 9, 8).
If you and your dealer have the same amount of points, the winner is determined by the next highest card, known as "Kicker", which is not a part of the paying hand.
In Three Card Poker, a three card straight is more valuable than a three card flush. This is because a three-card straight is more difficult to get than a three-card flush.
Ace may be the highest card in a straight from an ace, a king, a queen or the lowest in a straight from 3, 2 and an ace.
