Deal and objective
The player receives two hole cards and shares three community cards. Community cards are revealed one at a time after successive wagering decisions.
Form a final five-card poker hand that qualifies for payment on the posted schedule. There is no dealer hand to beat.
Player decision
Before each community card, fold or make the permitted 1×, 2× or 3× raise. Earlier decisions have less information and control later access.
A strategy classifies made hands and draws by street, accounting for live ranks, suitedness, straight potential and the cost of future raises.
Settlement
Ante and all raises normally receive the same final-hand pay-table result. A push category returns action; lower hands lose every active unit.
Copy every category from royal flush through the push threshold, including maximum aggregate payout.
Table check
Three-card, progressive and jackpot wagers may use hole cards, community cards or both under independent schedules.
Using final-hand strength without pricing future action, or quoting house edge as though it were per total wager, misstates cost.
