3 Card Poker is played in casinos around the world
including the UK and Las Vegas.
Objective of the Game
It is a fast moving and
interactive game based on the relative strength of your hand
against Poker values. The game offers you two betting
opportunities on the three cards you are dealt, Pair Plus and
conventional casino poker Ante and Play options. You can bet
on these two games together or separately.
The Pair Plus game rewards you on the Poker value of your
three cards irrespective of what the dealer's hand is. Your
Ante bet (and subsequent Play bet, if you choose to do so) is
against the dealer's hand. In order to qualify, the dealer's
hand must contain at least Queen high.
3 Card Poker at 32Red is played with one deck of 52 cards,
which is shuffled after each hand.
How to Play
- Pair Plus bets are rewarded on the value of the player's hand, irrespective of the dealer's cards. See below for payout schedule.
- Players can also place an Ante bet against the dealer's hand. Once they have their cards, in order to play the hand against the dealer, a Play bet is placed which is equal to the initial Ante bet.
- In order to qualify, the dealer must receive at least Queen high. When the dealer does qualify, then winning hands pay 1-1 on both Ante and Play bets (see below for bonuses). When the dealer does not qualify, the Ante bet is paid at 1-1, with the Play bet a push (draw).
- Most of the values of traditional Poker Ladder are applicable to 3 Card Poker, although in this game a Straight beats a Flush (see below for details).
