How to Play

Ante-and-Play game

The object of Ante-and-Play is to receive a higher 3-card poker hand than the Dealer.

For Ante-and-Play place Ante bet, first. After you are dealt three cards, decide whether to fold (end the game and lose the ante bet) or call by placing another bet equal to Ante bet and see the Dealer’s hand.

Thus, to proceed with the game, click Fold or Call control.

• If you decide to fold, you lose your Ante bet and Pair Plus bet, if one was placed, too.
• If you decide to call, one more bet equal to Ante is placed. Place the calling bet either by clicking the Bet wagering spot or with the help of Call button. Dealer’s cards are revealed and your hand is compared to the Dealer’s. To qualify, the Dealer must have a Queen or better.

Possible outcomes are:

• Dealer does not qualify: Ante wins 1 to 1, Call bet is returned;
• Dealer qualifies, but the player’s hand beats Dealer’s: both Call and Ante pay 1 to 1;
• Dealer qualifies and Dealer’s hand beats the player’s: both Call and Ante are lost

Bonus Payouts

In addition to normal Ante-and-Play gameplay, there is a bonus payout on the ante bet for especially good hands. Ante Bonus payout table is displayed on the left side of the table.
