Tri Card Poker (also known as Three card poker) is a poker variation which requires skill and luck. You can play the game in 2 ways, by making an ante an play bet and/or making a Pair Plus bet. Beat the dealer by betting if your 3 card hand will beat his, win additional money on a pair or better by placing a pair plus side bet.

Instructions

To begin place an ante bet and/or a pair plus side bet then press Deal. The 2 bets can be different amounts. You and the dealer will be dealt 3 cards, yours will be face up and the dealer's will be hidden for now.

If you made an ante bet you may now decide to play or fold. If you fold your ante and side bet will be forfeited. To play you must make a Play bet that will be equal to your ante. If you only made a side bet then the dealers cards will automatically be revealed.

If you folded then the game is over, if you played then the dealers cards will be revealed. The dealer must have a rank of a Queen High Card or greater to qualify for play. If the dealer does not play then your ante will pay 1:1 and your play bet will push. If the dealer plays then your hands will be compared to decide the winner.

Hands are ranked from highest to lowest: Straight Flush, 3 of a kind, Straight, Flush, Pair, High Card.

The hand which is ranked the highest will win. If you win your winnings will now be awarded and if you made a winning Pair Plus side bet it will be paid too. The amount you will win depends on the hand ranking, press menu ingame to see the Pair plus and ante Bonus paytables.

You can still win the pair plus side bet if the dealer does not qualify.
You will not win the pair plus side bet if you fold, even if your hand would have qualified to win.
The highest straight is A-K-Q
