Casino Hold'em UK

Texas Hold'em against the dealer, with one decision after the flop.

Key takeaways

  • Call about four hands in five.
  • About 2.2% of the ante.
  • Dealer needs a pair of fours to qualify.
  • The AA bonus costs about 6%.

AnswerIn Casino Hold'em you call or fold after the flop. Correct play folds only the weakest fifth of hands, for a house edge of about 2.2% of the ante.

How it plays

  1. Place an ante.
  2. You and the dealer get two cards; three community cards are dealt.
  3. Fold, or call with a bet of twice the ante.
  4. Two more community cards are dealt.
  5. Best five-card hand wins; the dealer needs a pair of fours or better to qualify.

When to fold

Fold when you hold two low cards that miss the flop entirely and have no draw. With any pair, any ace or king, or a flush or straight draw, call.
