Three Card Poker, also known as Tri Card Poker, is a popular poker variant available at Austria’s mobile casinos. This game is played between the player and the dealer, and the goal is to make the best three-card poker hand.
Players are dealt three cards each. The dealer's hand is only revealed after the player makes his final decision. After the cards are dealt, the player must decide whether to fold or raise. If he folds, the player forfeits his ante bet. If he raises, the player must make a Play bet equal to the amount of the original Ante bet.
The dealer must have Queen high or better to qualify. If the dealer doesn't qualify, the player wins even money on the Ante bet and the Play bet is a push. If the dealer does qualify and the player has a higher hand, the player wins even money on both bets. If the dealer qualifies and has a higher hand, the player loses both bets.
If the player and dealer have the same hand, the higher ranking card wins. If the highest ranking card in both hands is the same, the second highest ranking card wins and if that card is also the same, the third highest ranking card wins.
