Three Card Poker

Three Card Poker® is one of the easiest and most popular stud poker games offered at Thunder Valley Casino. Players have the option of playing the pairs plus, bad beat and or progressive bonus jackpot. Players may bet against Dealer, and wager on the value of their own three-card hand. Bonus payouts may be received for certain hands when wagering against Dealer.

HOW TO PLAY

Players first place an ante against Dealer. Players then review cards and may fold or place an equal wager on the play spot. Players win both wagers if their hand beats Dealer’s qualifying hand of a queen or better. If Dealer doesn't qualify, players win the ante wager and the play wager pushes.

The "Pair Plus" bet is a separate bet that automatically wins with a pair or higher whether or not the player's cards beat Dealer’s cards. To play both ante and Pair Plus spots, Players make a play wager, or forfeit both bets.

Ranking of hands from highest to lowest: straight flush, three of a kind, straight, flush and a pair. If no hand contains a pair or better, the hand containing the highest ranking card(s) wins. Ace is high except in 3-2 ace sequence.
