Three Card Poker at Littlewoods Casino
The aim of Three Card Poker is for the player to make one of several three card poker hands and/or beat the dealer in the process. Unlike regular poker, no other players are competing against you, so if you've ever wanted to play a dealer one-on-one, this is your chance. At the beginning of each game you decide whether you want to place an Ante bet, a Pairs Plus bet or both bets. Three cards are dealt to each of you and the dealer, and at this point you decide whether you want to play your hand or fold it. If you fold it then you lose all of the bets previously placed as well as any prize that you are entitled to from the Pairs Plus bet. If you play the hand then this will involve your making another bet which is the same size as your Ante bet.
If you play and the dealer does not have Queen high or better then the dealer will fold and your Ante bet will win at odds of 1/1. If the dealer has Queen high or better then he will play. In this event your hand will be compared with the hand of the dealer and the best ranked hand will win. Winning Three Card Poker hands at Littlewoods Casino are detailed below:
