The Players Rewards Card is a dead-simple way to play and win at the best online gaming destinations. Signing up for a PRC consolidates all your online payment options into one card. This saves you time. Three Card Poker was invented in England in the mid 1990's by Derek Webb. It was originally called Casino Brag, since it was inspired by 3-card Brag, adapted to create a casino game in which players bet against the house rather than against each other. The lone player may be chosen by bidding or by who holds a particular card, or the players may simply take turns to play alone. A number in brackets 1 indicates players who do not take a full part in the game, but may have minor duties such as dealing the cards, fetching the beer or making the tea. Just remember, the rules are slightly different in 3 Card Poker. It’s the only poker game where a straight beats a flush. Three Card Poker is a proprietary game and trademark used under license from SHFL Entertainment, Inc.

PLAYING THE GAME

The game utilizes two 52-card decks, rotating between the two decks each hand. Three Card Poker includes five separate bets. There is the Ante bet, where the Player is playing against the Player/Dealer to see who has the best hand. There is a Play bet, where the Player is playing against the Player/Dealer to see who has the best hand.

There is the Pair Plus Bonus bet, where the Player is wagering on whether or not they will be dealt a pair or better. A Player must place a base bet in order to place the Pair Plus Bonus bet. This bet is then independent of the base bets. If the player receives a pair or better, this bet is paid according to the pay table below. If there is no pair, this wager will lose.

There is the 6 Card Bonus bet, where the Player is wagering on whether or not a five card poker hand, consisting of Trips or better, will be dealt using a combination of the Player's three card hand and the Player/Dealer's three card hand. This bet wins according to the pay table below; if there is not Three-of-a-kind or better, this bet loses. This bet is optional and can be more or less than the ante bet.

There is also an optional Progressive Bonus bet, see the casino floor for payout information regarding this bet.

Each Player will receive a three card hand.

ANTE/PLAY BASE SETS

The Player must place an Ante bet in order to be dealt cards. After looking at their hand, the Player must make a decision to fold or play on.

If the Player folds, they forfeit their Ante and their Pair Plus Bonus wager. If applicable, the 6-card bonus wager still has action. If the Player wants to continue, they must make an additional wager in the Play circle equal to their Ante bet.

After all the Players have made their deci­sions, the Dealer will turn over the Player/Dealer's three card hand. At this juncture, it is determined if the Dealer 'qualifies' with a hand of Queen or higher.

Three Player Card Game

If the Player/Dealer's hand does not qualify with a Queen or higher, all Players still active in the hand will have their Play bet pushed back. Additionally, the Ante bets will win if the Player's hand is greater than the Player/Dealer's hand, or Push, if the Player's hand is equal or less than the Player/Dealer's hand.

If the Player/Dealer's hand does qualify with a Queen or higher, the hands will be com­pared; whichever hand ranks highest will win both the Ante and Play bets. In the event of a tie where all three of the Player's cards match all three of the Player/Dealer's cards, the Play and Ante bets will push. Winning Ante/Play bets are paid 1:1.

THREE CARD POKER RULES

Ace is high except in A-2-3 sequence. Players may not show or discuss their hands prior to the opening of the Player/Dealer's hand.

MULTIPLE HANDS

Casino Card Game With 3 Players

A Player may bet on any open seat and check and set all hands in turn.

Once the hand is set either by placing a play bet or forfeiting, the Player cannot go back and change the decision on the hand.

Players are not allowed to exchange or communicate information about the hands during the play.

THE ACTION BUTTON

The Player/Dealer's last card determines where the 'Action Button' is placed. Placement of the Action Button is based on the numerical value of the Player/Dealer's left most card, as it is displayed after spreading the cards, as follows:

• Ace is counted as 1.
• Two through 10 have their face value.
• Jack is counted as 11.
• Queen is counted as 12.
• King is counted as 13.

Counting begins at Seat No. 1 and continues clockwise. The Player/Dealer position is not counted when determining action.

Collection fees are posted on each table.
