The objective of the game is to obtain as good a hand
as possible: pair of 10's as a minimum and Royal Flush as a maximum. The
game is concerning to the so-called stud pokers in which players receive
face down cards and face up cards. There are no rivals in the game, so
only player's personal result is important. (If you are familiar with the
rules, you can skip the next chapter and read the instructions
to the virtual play mode only).
Rules
A standard 52-cards deck is used and before each hand is reshuffled.
The game begins with the player making three equal bets. Notice that in
Let It Ride the player could not raise the bets only to lower them. During
the hand it is allowed to get one or two bets back. However as much money
will be on the table by the end of a game the larger winning will be (it
is paid according to the payout table on the each remaining bet).
Let’s get back to the moment when the bets have just made, the game
began and the cards are dealing. Three of them go to the player and two
are placed face down as the community cards. When estimated the chances of
making the poker hand from the cards and still unknown community cards
given, the player should decide what to do with the bets: to withdraw one
or to keep it on the table.
When the player completes his turn
the dealer opens one of the community cards. Now the player should
take one more decision: to remove one bet or just continue the game
without any changes. When he decides what to do the dealer open the second
card from the community cards. If the poker hand appears from all of the
cards given, the player is given back the bets rested and the wins on each
of them (see the paytable below).
The side bet. The player could make the additional bet
in $1. If he gets any poker hand, except for the lowest one, he will be
paid (apart from the winnings) from $6 to $20,000.
