You win if your five-card poker hand beats the dealer’s hand. If the dealer fails to qualify, your call bet is returned to you. The dealer must have at least a pair of fours to make a qualifying hand. The best five-card poker hand then wins the pot. If a player calls, the dealer will then deal two more community cards. All players can use the community cards to make their own five-card hand.Īt this point the dealer places a bet, equal to twice the size of the player’s ante, and players choose to either fold - forfeiting their ante and any bonus bets they have placed, and taking no further part in the hand - or call, matching the dealer’s bet. Three community cards - which can be shared by all players in the hand - are then spread in the middle of the table. The dealer then deals two cards to each player and two cards face-down to their own position.
