Poker Tri is a variant online poker that allows punters to play with either (or
both) a standard PLAY/ANTE game and a PAIR PLUS. Players are offered two ways
to win prizes. The Play/Ante game puts players against the dealer; whoever has
the higher hand wins. The Pair Plus game, meanwhile, allows customers to bet on
whether or not they will be dealt a pair or better.
The Hands Rankings
Although a variant of poker, this
game does not entirely follow the traditional hierarchy of the hands’ value. In
fact, Poker Tri considers a STRAIGHT to be better than a FLUSH. The card
rankings are as follows:
- Straight Flush
- Three Of a Kind
- Straight
- Flush
- Pair
Play/Ante
In the Play/Ante game, the dealer
loses if the player has a hand with a value higher than the dealer’s qualifying
hand of a Queen or better. Players kick off the session by placing an ANTE.
With their cards shown, players may fold or—if they believe their hand could
out-value the dealer’s hand—place an amount equal to the ANTE on the PLAY spot.
Pair Plus
For the PAIR PLUS game to be won,
players should have a pair or better; else, they will lose their wager. Players
receive PAIR PLUS payouts regardless of the dealer’s hand. However, if players
place a bet on Ante and fold the hand, the PAIR PLUS will be forfeited. The
highest PAIR PLUS payout is 40-to-1, which is a Straight Flush.
