Three Card Poker is a variant of the popular poker game. It is played with a standard deck of 52 cards and is a simpler version of the classic game of poker. The game is one of the most popular offerings at mobile casinos in Hong Kong.
The game is played between the player and the dealer. Each player is dealt three cards, face down. The dealer also receives three cards, but only the middle card is revealed. The player must then decide whether to fold, continue in the game by placing an additional wager referred to as the Ante or the Play wager, as well as the Ante and the Pair Plus wager.
If the player continues with the game, the dealer’s remaining two cards will be revealed and the player’s and the dealer’s hands are compared. If the dealer has a Queen or higher ranked card, the player must beat the dealer’s hand to win the game. If the player has a hand of lower rank, the dealer wins. Players that make the Play wager are also eligible to win the Ante bet if the dealer’s hand qualifies.
