If desired, it is possible to place a bonus wager. After that, he or she receives three upcards, and two hole cards are lying in front of the dealer.
Evaluating the rank of cards, the player may leave a part of the bet on the first sector or remove it. If the cards seem to be weak, he or she takes one-third of the bet back. Or on the contrary, the bet can be left in the game.
Then the dealer faces up one of the two cards lying face down. This card is treated as a component of the player's hand. Again he or she should choose whether to take back one-third of the second sector or leave it in the game.
After this, the second hole card is faced up. If the five cards have a paid combination, the user receives the payout for bets remained in the game. If there is no paid combination, all bets located on the table are lost.
Even after receiving the first three cards, the player may click the button and leave all bets in the game. Then the croupier immediately faces up two cards. Usually this happens when three upcards already have a paid combination.
