Basic Outline of sidebet rules
Uses Player's 3 Cards
Hand Triggers both Jackpots
Both the Bonus Jackpot wager and MegaShare wager are made and registered prior to the cards being dealt, and the cards dealt to that box contain the triggering event combination(s).
Hand Triggers Bonus Jackpot Only
Only the Bonus Jackpot wager is made and registered prior to the cards being dealt, and the cards dealt to that box contain the triggering event combination(s).
Hand Triggers Neither Jackpot
Neither the Bonus Jackpot wager nor the MegaShare wagers are made and registered prior to the cards being dealt, and the cards dealt to that box contain the triggering event combination(s).
Winning progressive side bet hands are, in descending order, as follows:-
• 3 Card Mini Royal (Diamonds)
• 3 Card Mini Royal (Other)
• 3 Card Straight Flush
• 3 Card Trips
• 3 Card Straight
If the player's hand does not hit one of the above rankings, the progressive wager will lose.
As a progressive wager, a proportion of the wager will be retained by the house (normally 30%) whilst the remainder will be added to an accumulator jackpot meter (normally 70%). Losing amounts remain on the accumulator progressive jackpot meter until subsequently won.
