Three card poker practice with 6 card bonus three card poker practice with 6 card bonus Fast-paced card games like 3 Card Poker are high on the favourite list for many poker fans who like to play casino games on the side. Three card has straightforward rules and is a lot easier to learn than other poker games such as Texas Holdem.2. Three Card Poker is played with a regular deck of 52 cards. There are no wild cards and just regular poker rules about hands except for the change that a straight beats a flush, since it is actually easier to make a flush with three cards than with five.

I recently played 3-card poker and with the 6-card bonus the dealer had 10,Q,A of spades and I had 9,J,K of spades - the casino in Ontario paid me only the royal flush which was 1000:1 but I'm contesting that a second payout of a straight flush also should be paid out - the straight flush hand being 9,10,J,Q,K of spades which pays 200:1 or another $2000 of the minimum bet of $10. Am I correct that that there are 2 separate payouts with these 6 cards?
According to Casino Rama in Ontario the hand that I was dealt 9,J,K of spades combined with dealer's hand of 10,Q,A also of spades was rewarded the royal flush of 1000:1. The other poker hand of 9,10,J,Q,K with a payout of 200:1 was not a valid payout hand because the casino only pays out the highest hand. Can someone verify this? Thanks.

Paying only the highest win per wagered item (hand, payline, ticket, etc.) is industry standard among all types of games.
Otherwise, the hand in question could be considered a Royal Flush and a Straight Flush and a Flush and a Straight, and trying to collect the payoff for all four types would be rather silly.

The '6 Card Bonus' is a side bet based on the highest five-card poker hand that can be composed out of the player's and dealer's three cards.

No chance. Only the highest possible payout per hand ever gets paid on any table game. If your example were the case, why would you not also get paid for the straight and the flush since you also have those? A Royal is the correct payment.

Nearly all Las Vegas casinos of any significance spread three Card Poker. The minimum bets range from $2 at Joker’s Wild to $15 at Aria. Players will need double the Ante bet to play, meaning that the true minimum bet is double the posted amount. This does not include the Pair Plus side bet, which may be bet by itself without an accompanying Ante wager.

The game’s appeal is its simplicity. While it has a small element of skill, it is easy to learn. The house edge is reasonable to most players. It is typically a friendly crowd at the tables.

How to Play Three Card Poker

Three Card Poker is one of the simplest table games in Las Vegas to learn. There is only one rule related to skill to understand.

#1: Place Your Bets – There are two bets on most Three Card Poker tables. One is the Ante. The other is Pair Plus. Players may bet on one of these or both. Unlike most poker table games, there is no obligation to bet the Ante.

#2: Raise or Fold – Players and the dealer are dealt three cards face down. Players look at their three cards and decide whether to raise. If the player has queen-six-four or higher, the player should raise. The Raise bet is equal to the amount of the Ante. If the player does not raise, he folds. The dealer then looks at the house hand and compares it to each player.

  • If the dealer beats the player, the Raise loses.
  • The Ante loses if the player has less than a straight, keeping in mind that a straight ranks higher than a flush in Three Card Poker.
  • Antes push if the dealer does not make at least queen-high.

Flush or Higher Payouts

Bonus

If the player makes a flush or higher, the Ante is paid based on the following chart, regardless of whether the player wins or loses:

  • Straight Flush: 5-1
  • Three of a Kind: 4-1
  • Straight: 1-1

Pair Plus Payouts

The Pair Plus is paid whether the player wins or loses. It pays based on the following:

  • Straight Flush: 40-1
  • Three of a Kind: 30-1
  • Straight: 6-1
  • Flush: Either 4-1 or 3-1
  • Any Pair: 1-1

If you are not in Las Vegas, you can still play Three Card Poker against a live dealer and get a Vegas experience.
