Let
It Ride Poker plays only with the dealer and not
against other players. The objective is to obtain
the highest poker hand (containing at least a pair
of tens) while keeping the maximum bet on the table.
A player begins each hand by placing an ante on the
table which consists of three identical bets with an
option of making an additional $1 bet in order to
qualify for a bonus. Six cards are dealt in total.
The first three cards are dealt to the player (face
up) and the next three cards are placed in front of
the dealer (face down). At this time, the player may
choose to withdraw the first bet (Pull Bet) or keep
it on the table (Let It Ride). The dealer then
discards the fourth card and turns over the fifth
card and the player must decide whether to Let It
Ride or to Pull the second bet after which the
dealer finally turns over the sixth card and the
hand is scored. The player wins if the player's hand
qualifies with at least a pair of tens, the payoff
is determined by the quality of the hand. Players
can win a bonus on top of their payouts if they
place the additional $1 bet by drawing one of the
following hands: Royal Flush, Straight Flush, Four
of a Kind, Full House, Flush, Straight, or Three of
a Kind. The skill of the player is required to find
the appropriate strategy for the 51,979,200 possible
variations of this game.
