Tri-Card Poker
Tri-Card Poker is a variation of
standard poker. In Tri-Card Poker both the
player and dealer receive three cards. The cards
are dealt from a standard 52 card deck. The
dealer’s cards are dealt face down. Tri-Card
Poker is actually two games that consist of:
The player has a choice of
betting on Ante, Pair Plus, or both.
The object in the Ante and Raise
portion is to receive a higher 3-card poker hand
than the Dealer.
The object of the Pair Plus game
is simply to wager on whether you will receive a
3-card poker hand with any pair or better.
Please note - Any three card
straight out ranks any three card flush.
Cards are ranked from
2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10, Jack, Queen, King, Ace, with
2 being lowest and ace being highest.
The Ante and Raise
After placing an Ante bet
the Player is dealt 3 cards face up and the
Dealer receives 3 cards face down. If the Player
does not believe the hand can beat the Dealer,
the Player can fold the hand and the original
bet is lost.
If the Player believes the hand
can beat the Dealers hand, the Player must raise
with a bet equal to the Ante amount. After
raising, the Dealer will reveal its cards. If
the Dealer has a Queen or higher it will then
compare its hand to the Player, the winner being
the highest ranked poker hand. If the Dealer has
the highest hand the player loses both the Ante
and Raise bets. If the Dealer does not have at
least a Queen, the Dealer does not compare
hands. The Player is paid 1:1 on the Ante bet
and the Raise is returned as a push. If the
Player has a straight or better, the Player is
paid an Ante bonus according to the pay chart
listed at the end of this article.
The Pair Plus
The Pair Plus bet is won if the
Player's hand is dealt a pair or higher. The
Pair Plus bet is a separate bet that is not
measured against the Dealer's hand, it is paid
out based on the rank of the hand dealt, (please
refer to the Pair Plus Pay table at the end of
this article). If the Player wagers on the Ante
and folds the hand the Pair Plus wager is also
forfeited
The Player can win in Pair
Plus if the Player is dealt a pair or
higher.
The Player loses in Pair Plus
if the Player does not receive a minimum of
a pair, when dealt three cards.
