Basic Outline of sidebet rules / how to play
Twist Pok3r is a casino game, exclusive to Genting Casinos, based on 5-Card Draw Poker. The aim of all Players and the Dealer is to be dealt a pair of Jacks or higher. Players play against the Dealer's hand, drawn according to a set of House Rules.
How you play...
To begin play, place your bet on the 'Ante' - Player and the Dealer will then receive five cards face down. Study your cards and decide which of the following routes you will take:
"Fold" if you do not want to play the hand and in doing so you will lose your 'Ante' bet
OR
If your hand is a Natural hand of a Straight or higher, you are not required to place any further bet
OR
Depending on your hand, you may choose to discard and replace up to 3 cards. For each card that you choose to discard and replace, you must make an additional 'Twist' wager, equal to your 'Ante' Wager.
The Dealer will then reveal their five cards and discard and replace up to 3 cards based on the following House Rule – The Dealer must hold their highest Poker hand, two card minimum
Finally, the Dealer will compare their final hand to the player's final hand. If the player's hand outranks the Dealer's hand AND is at least a Pair of Jacks or better, then the player wins. Your wagers will be paid as follows;
