Let it Ride Poker - Objective of the game
The object of the game is to get a pair of 10s or better, using
three cards dealt to the player and two "community" cards given
to the dealer.
In this game everyone plays against the casino and not against
each other as in traditional poker.
Let It Ride Poker - Playing the game
To start, each player makes three bets of equal amount. The
dealer then gives each player three cards and takes two
community cards placed face down.
After seeing their first three cards each player has the choice
to take one of their three bets back or to leave it out and 'let
it ride'.
The dealer then turns over one of the two community cards, which
apply to all hands dealt. Each player then has the option to
take out another bet or to 'let it ride'.
The player may leave their bet in or take it out the second time
regardless of their first decision. The dealer then shows the
second community card.
Winners are paid based on hands which are better than a pair of
10s, with a pair of 10s paying even money.
