How to Play
Playing is simple with the intuitive button layout. Before you begin, choose the bet denomination you wish to wager in each round: You can select from 0.02 per coin to 1.00 per coin on the three-in-one hand! Next, choose the number of coins that you wish to bet on the hands by clicking on the “BET ONE” button. The first time you click the button, you will bet 1 coin on the main 5 card hand, click it again and you will bet a coin on the 5 card hand, and the leftmost 3 card hand. Click it a third time and you bet 1 coin on the 5 card hand, the leftmost 3 card hand, and the rightmost 3 card hand! Continue to do this to increase the number of coins bet on each hand. You may choose to bet anywhere from 1 coin on the 5 card hand to 15 coins (5 coins per hand). If you choose to wager the maximum amount of coins (15), it is also possible to push the “BET MAX” button, which will automatically deal the cards and bet max on all three hands. If you use the “BET ONE” button to select the number of wagered coins, you must press the “DEAL” button to be dealt a hand.
Once the cards are dealt, click on the cards you wish to hold, (or click the “HOLD” button beneath the cards). Once you have selected the cards you wish to hold, simply click “DEAL” and you will receive new cards in the positions of the cards that were not held. A winning hand will be shown by a marker next to the win, and the “DOUBLE UP” text will flash. You now have a chance at the double up bonus game! Read below for more on the double up feature.
Double Up
The Double Up round allows you to double your earnings on a winning hand! You may keep doubling them as long as you feel lucky, up to four times. Every winning hand will give you the option to double your winnings. To choose the double up option click the “DOUBLE” button. If you do not wish to double your winnings, simply click the “CANCEL” button. After clicking the “DOUBLE” button you will see five cards dealt, one face up and four face down. The face up card is the Dealer's card. The objective of the game is to choose a face down card that you think will have a greater value than the Dealer's card. If the card value you selected is higher than the dealer’s card, your win is doubled! You can choose to “Double Up” again, or click “Collect” to collect your winnings. If the card you choose is lower than the dealer’s card, you lose your initial winnings. If you lose a double up at any time, your original win plus any Double Up credits you have received in that round will be lost.
