Let it ride rules
This poker-style casino game is a variation of five card stud,
but instead of beating the dealer or other players the goal is to
get the highest ranking hand. A paytable shows the winnings for
each hand rank, the minimum winning hand being a pair of tens.
Playing the game
The game starts with the player making three identical bets in
the three betting circles in front of the players labelled "1",
"2", and "$". After this the dealer gives each
player three cards and deals two community cards face down, the
community cards can be used by all players to complete a 5 card
hand.
Then after looking at only the three cards the player will have
to make a decision based on how strong the hand is whether to remove
one of the three bets or let the bets remain "let it ride".
Then the dealer will turn one of the two community cards face up,
and the player will now again have to decide whether to remove a
second bet or "let it ride" again, regardless of their
first decision.
The dealer will then turn the last community card face up and the
game is finished and winning hands will get played off.
So at least one of the three bets will always remain and the other
two is up to the decisions of the player. A paytable displayed near
the game will show the pay offs for each hand rank, the minimum
winning hand being a pair of tens.
