Casino Hold'em Rules Explained
Casino Hold'em is a poker-based game played against the dealer using community cards. This guide explains the rules. See Texas Hold'em and hand rankings. Payouts are shown in the game.
- You place an ante, get two cards and community cards, then fold or call to make the best five-card hand against the dealer.
- Casino Hold'em is played against the dealer only, not other players, with a single call decision rather than multiple betting rounds.
- The dealer needs a minimum hand to qualify.
The objective
You aim to make a better five-card hand than the dealer, using two hole cards and shared community cards, betting only against the dealer.
How a round plays
You place an ante and receive two cards along with the first community cards. You then fold or make a call bet to see the rest.
Dealer qualifying
The dealer needs a minimum hand to qualify. If it does not, the ante usually pays and the call may be returned, depending on the rules.
Payouts
Winning hands are paid from the ante and call, with bonus payouts for strong hands shown in the paytable. See the table games guide.
