Let It Ride Poker

Unlike most casino games, with Let It Ride, the Players are not competing against the Dealer. The Player is actually hoping the Dealer has a great hand.

The basics
The basic poker hand rankings pertain to Let It Ride, however, a pair must consist of 10s or higher to win.

Playing

  • The Dealer deals himself two cards and the Player is given three cards..
  • The Player's winning hand is based upon the three cards that are dealt to him plus the Dealer's two cards. 
  • To begin the game, the minimum table bet must be placed on each of three circles on the table. 
  • The circles will be labeled 1, 2 and $. For example, if the minimum table bet is $5, the initial bet is $15. The Player is then dealt three cards face down and the Dealer receives two cards which he places face down in front of him. The Player may then pick up their cards.
  • The Player can now fold (by scratching the cards on the table) and the Dealer will return the first wager. That is, the bet you placed on the 1 circle. 
  • If the Player wishes to continue playing, the cards are placed face down under the 1 wager and all bets remain. 
  • The Dealer then turns over one of his cards. 
  • The Player now has another chance to fold or continue playing.
  • If the Player folds, the Dealer will return the second wager (2 circle). 
  • To continue playing the Player places the cards under the $ circle. 
  • The Dealer then reveals his last card and determines the winners. 
  • If the Player has a winning hand with their first three cards (for example, a minimum of a pair of 10s or three-of-a-kind), the cards are placed straight under the $ wager and all three bets remain
