Let It Ride Poker RulesLet It Ride is easy to play. The best part of the game is that you can make three bets, and, if you don't like your cards, you can pull two of them back. Let It Ride Poker, based on the five card stud poker game, was designed to offer casino guests an opportunity to control two of their three bets wagered on an exciting poker game. Here you put up all your bets before the first cards are dealt and then you can pull your bets back one-by-one, if you don't like the way your hand develops. If you do like the cards, you just let your bets ride, as indicated by the name of the game. How to Play Let It Ride Poker Starting out the player makes three equal bets. This is done by placing one of the chips in each of the three circles located at the player's playing position. Those circles will be marked as "$", "1" and "2". The chips in circles "1" and "2" may be called back later on, but the chip in the "$" circle is the minimum the player has to risk. After placing the bets each player and the dealer get three cards face down. The dealer then will discard one of his cards immediately. The rest of his cards are not a hand; they are later being used for every player to create a five card poker hand out of his own three cards. In Let It Ride Poker the player is not playing against the dealer or the other players; he is simply trying to get the best possible poker hand by using his three cards and two community cards, which the dealer will expose. Each player will be required to keep the three cards in full view of the dealer at all times. After looking at his three cards, each player will be asked by the dealer if he wishes to take back his first bet or Let It Ride. After every player chooses between Let It Ride or taking back one bet, the dealer turns one of his two cards over. The player now has to use the dealer's up card with his own three cards to make a good hand. At this point the betting starts over. Each player is again given the choice to Let it Ride or take his second bet back. In either case, whether the player Lets It ride or takes back his bet, the decision he made on the first bet will not be affected. Once everybody has made their decision on the second bet, in the same way as explained above, the dealer will turn over his second card. Now the player has to use both of the dealer's up cards together with his three cards to make the best hand. In Let It Ride Poker the player wins if he has a Pair of Tens or better. The payout is based on the bets that were left on the table. For each bet left on the table the player will get the following odds:
