What is a 3 Card Video Poker?
The 3 Card Video Poker is a mixture of two games, presenting the player with a unique chance of playing against the machine and trying to form the best possible combination of cards on one side and placing a separate wager on an odd that a hand of Pair or better will be dealt, on the other.
3 Card Video Poker Rules
The rules are quite simple and both the player and the “house” will receive 3 cards each. The players will have three betting options in front of them – Ante, Play and Pair Plus. Once the bet is placed on Ante, the players will proceed by either folding or staying in the game, which will of course depend on their hand.
Folding means that the Ante wager is lost, whereas placing a new bet on the Play betting area will keep the players in the game. The amount of the bet is the same as the original, Ante bet, and the Dealer must now draw a Queen or a higher ranked card to stay in the game. If the Dealer is not able to compete, the players will take the winnings on Ante and get the Play bet back.
If the Dealer happens to draw the Queen and thus forming a combination of cards which will outweigh the player’s hand, both the Ante and the Play bets will be lost. In some rare cases, a Tie may occur – when that happens, the player’s hand will always outweigh the Dealer’s.
The ranking of hands and payouts in 3 Card Video Poker
Payout will of course depend on how the hand is ranked, as shown below:
HandPair Plus Bet Payout
Straight Flush 40:1
Three of a Kind 30:1
Straight 6:1
Flush 4:1
Pair 1:1
Ante Bonus Payout
Straight Flush 5:1
Three of a Kind 4:1
Straight 1:1
The Pair Plus is completely independent from other bets and the players are paid as soon as they land the necessary combination. The same will happen with the Ante Bonus payout – the player will receive the payout awarded for Straight, Three of a Kind or Straight Flush even if the Dealer’s hand is higher.
Where to play 3 Card Video Poker?
Pretty much along the entire Strip, but most people would recommend Caesars Palace and Downtown Vegas casinos, since the limits are much more favourable there.

NOTE: If you’re running IE9 and the game keeps crashing, you need to update your Java installation (for it has nothing to do with us but with Microsoft, as they kindly note in their Support Page). Speaking of upgrades, you might want to upgrade your browser to Google Chrome.
Mississippi Stud is a well-liked and a simple poker-based table game by Scientific Games. If you’re into polishing your skills while having good fun, this Java-based online trainer might be just the right thing — it allows you to play free for up to $50,000.
The PGA is our in-house developed feature that advises you on your best plays. Working like a pop-up window in your browser, it lets you know when your move might be a risky one. You can turn it on/off by selecting the checkbox “Warn on strategy errors” atop of the game screen, and you can switch between two modes while you play.
For you to make the best of it, we highly recommend reading the Wizard’s Mississippi Stud introduction. Once you get a grip at rules, strategy, paytables, and analysis, the only other decision you have to make is whether you’ll play with or without our Personal Game Advisor.
Paytable is neatly set on the right side of the screen and is quite self-explanatory.
On the bottom of the screen is a control strip that lets you set up all parameters of the game and provides for all relevant information. There is a balance field, chips and wager info, control buttons, and win amount.
Start your game...
...by making the ante bet with chips in denominations ranging from $5, $25, $100, and $500. You’ll notice yellow borders encircling them when selected. You can increase ante in each value by a single click —for $200 bet, click twice on ante field with $100 chip selected. The maximum ante is $1,000.
Two buttons — Deal and Clear — are used to direct game moves once you’ve set your ante.
When the five cards are dealt, you’ll get two of them with face up and three with face down. Your control buttons will be replaced by four optional ones: Fold, Bet 1x, Bet 2x, and Bet 3x.
If you decide to bet, one community card will be turned over. Once you’ve examined it, you can proceed by selecting one of the offered bets. If you do so, the next community card will be turned over. In doing so, you actually have a possibility to go from 2nd Street bets all the way up to 5th Street or to fold whenever you deem proper.
When the hand ends
There will be two temporary control buttons displayed: Repeat and Clear. By pressing the former you reload previous bet settings, while by pressing the later you put yourself in the position to set a new bet.
Once the hand is dealt you can see information about the outcome right below your wagers. In case of a win, you get the info that correlates to items on the Pay Table.
This version of Mississippi Stud is quite funny and exciting to play. All relevant information is always visible, the game flow is smooth, it all develops rather quickly, and you always keep control by rather simple and intuitive command buttons.
The Personal Game Advisor works neatly and non-intrusive. While it may not always be right, it is in a number of cases which makes it a useful learning tool.
The game itself may show its volatile side on larger bets. It is quite enticing to win a large sum, particularly when betting on $500 and going all the way up to the 5th street, although, admittingly, it is much more fun to do so knowing that none of it would be applicable to real life scenario.
In any case, this online trainer is an exciting and valuable option for any type of player.
For entry-level guys, it is a nice opportunity to feel the table, options, best plays, overall vibe and mood of the game.
