Take note that the Dealer must get at least an Ace-King combination or higher to qualify. If the Dealer's hand is not strong enough to qualify, you are paid your bet and double your ante, irrespective of the value of your hand. If the Dealer's hand does however qualifies, you are paid out according to the Payout Schedule and receive double your ante.
Here are three examples from the payout table above:
- You ante one credit and are dealt a Royal Flush. You call, betting another two credits. The Dealer's hand does not qualify, so your bet of two credits plus double your ante: 1 x 2 = 2 credits, is returned to you. You are paid out four credits. Since you wagered three credits on this hand, your net profit is one credit.
- You ante one credit and are dealt a hand with no combinations. You call, betting another two credits. The Dealer has an Ace-King combination, so you lose your three credits. Your net loss is three credits.
- You ante one credit and are dealt an Ace-King combination. You call, betting another two credits. The Dealer also has an Ace-King combination. The hands are compared and the hand with the higher card wins. Your hand has the high card, so you are paid two times your bet: 2 x 2 = 4 credits, plus double your ante: 1 x 2 = 2 credits. You are paid out six credits. Since you wagered three credits on this hand, your net profit is three credits.
Enjoy the suspense of this brilliant game and good luck…
