| Object The object of the game is to bet when you think you have a better five-card Poker hand than the dealer will have. |

| Overview The game is relatively simple: put up your Ante, receive your five cards and either Bet or Surrender. The house also receives five cards: four face-down and one face-up.If you opt to Surrender, the hand is over and you lose your ANTE.If you BET, your hand is compared to the house hand and the higher ranked hand wins the ANTE bet (The rank of hands is shown in the Payoff Schedule in the Hand column.). In order for your BET to be paid, the house hand must Qualify AND your hand must out-rank the house hand. If this is the case, you will be paid according to the rank of your hand. See the Payoff Schedule below. If the house hand qualifies AND out-ranks your hand, you lose your ANTE and BET. If the house hand does not qualify, there is no action on your BET. If you have the same Poker hand as the house, then any remaining cards in the hand are taken into consideration and the highest ranking hand wins. Suits are not counted. For example, if you have a Pair of Kings, 10, 8, 4 and the house has a Pair of Kings, 10, 6, 5, then you win. (Your 8 is higher than the house's 6.) If your hand ties with the house hand (all five cards are identical in rank), your ANTE and BET are a push and no action is taken. |
