The exhilarating game known as Casino Holdem is basically a take on Texas Holdem. This version of 5-card poker is both effortless to learn and blast playing.

Unlike other games where you’re competing against other players, in Casino Holdem you’re playing against the Dealer/House exclusively. This perhaps best separates Casino Holdem from Texas Holdem, in which reading other player’s habits is imperative.


To Play the Game

Casino Holdem’s rules and rankings are essentially the same as in Texas Hold ‘Em.

To commence play, place a bet on the ANTE location and click the DEAL button. A pair of "Hole" cards are then dealt to the bettor, and 3 community (flop) cards are dealt facing up. The player then decides either to FOLD or CALL. Folding forfeits the player’s ante wager.

Two subsequent community cards are now added to the three already there, followed by the dealer flipping their hand. From these 5 flop cards and the player’s/dealer’s cards, both try to build a better poker hand then the other.

For the casino to qualify it needs a five-card poker hand equal to at least a pair of fours. Should the flop already presents at least this case, then you know that the dealer shall qualify so your bets will be paid out in full if you are declared the winner.

An AA side bets are optional. Players may bet that the first 5 cards dealt (the player’s 2 hole cards and first 3 flop cards) will feature a set of Aces or even better.

To place your bet(s), simply click on the chips you wish to wager, followed by clicking the AA and Ante areas on the table. Each subsequent click enlarges your wager by that chip value. Each right-click reduces the bet. You may also click on Clear Bets to remove all your bets and start over.

Next, Click the Deal button. You will receive 2 cards to help you build the strongest poker hand you can. The dealer also receives 2 cards, only face down. Three cards are then dealt to the flop.

Now it’s up to you to decide to Call and continue or Fold and kiss your wagers good bye. Should you Call, double your initial Ante goes into the Call circle. To collect on your AA side bet, you must Call. If not, you lose your AA bet whether should you’ve a valid hand or not.

Finally, 2 cards are dealt into the flop. At this point the dealer turns his/her cards to face-up, and automatically both your best poker hand and the dealer’s are assembled. When your hand is greater than the dealer’s, you’ve won and your Ante & Call bets are returned back to you with your winnings. Should the dealer’s hand be stronger, you lose your wagers.

To start playing another round, all you have to do is press New Game, place your bets, click the Deal button, or Rebet to repeat the prior bet. Have fun and good luck!
