In ante-play, the dealer’s hand must contain a queen high or better to play. In this situation, the player wins if their hand contains a pair or higher, regardless of the dealer’s hand. You place your wager on the pair plus space on the table and the cards are dealt. The pair plus bet can be made in addition to or instead of ante-play. Any payouts are made and the game round ends. The dealer then turns over their cards and the player’s hand is compared to the dealer’s. To play, another ante wager must be placed, equal to the initial bet. If the player folds, they lose their wager and the round ends. The player can then check their cards and choose to fold or play their hand. The cards will then be dealt, 3 to the player and 3 to the dealer face down. For ante-play, you place a wager on the ante space on the table. The card game features two basic ways to play Ante-play and pair plus.
