Highest to lowest hands are as follows: Royal Flush, Straight Flush, Quads (Four-of-a-Kind), Full House, Flush, Straight, Three-of-a-Kind, Two Pair, Pair, and Highest Card.Ī bonus is paid on the Blind if a player hits a straight or better and beats the dealer. If your hand beats the dealer’s your Play and Ante bets win even money. After all community cards are exposed, if you have not made a Play wager you must make a Play wager equal to your Ante wager, or fold. Once the three card flop-the first three community cards- are exposed you may check or bet two times your Ante wager.
After viewing their cards, the player may check or make a Play wager three to four times their ante, before any community cards are revealed.
To play against the dealer, the player must make an Ante and Blind wager. When the dealer does not qualify, your Ante wager is returned and all other wagers receive action. The dealer qualifies with a pair or better. In Ultimate Texas Hold’em the player and the dealer receive two cards each and make their five card hands in combination with five community cards.
