Game Operation:
The player must make an equal wager on the Ante and Blind bets, and may also make an optional Trips bet.
The maximum wager on each of the Ante, Blind and Trips bets is €100.
Each player and the dealer receive two cards face down and five community cards are dealt face down.
Each player will look at their own cards.
Each player may check (make no additional bet) or may make a Play bet equal to three or four times their Ante bet.
The dealer will reveal the first three of the five community cards.
Each player who previously checked may either check again or make a Play bet equal to two times their Ante bet. (Players who previously made a Play bet must check).
The dealer will reveal the two remaining community cards.
Each player who previously checked twice must either make a Play bet equal to their Ante bet, or fold and lose their Ante and Blind bets. (Players who previously made a Play bet may make no further bets).
The dealer’s hand is then compared against each player’s hand in turn, using in each case the best poker hand combination of their own two cards and the five community cards.
