There was a thread about this identical topic a few months ago. Basically, the strategy is play anything that is Q7 or better.

**sam9ball** · 10-15-10, 01:59 PM

stand on Q 10 or higher

**ttwarrior1** · 10-15-10, 02:16 PM

i usually fold on queen ten, seems like the dealer usually has an ace or pair anyway most of the time , or just nothing

I always bet more in the middle then on top though

**firedawg** · 10-15-10, 02:18 PM

dont play

**philswin** · 10-15-10, 02:18 PM

The strategy for Ante portion of Three Card Poker is very simple. You should fold if you have a hand lower than Queen – 6 -4 and you should continue and make the Play bet if you hand is higher.

i agree

**1949** · 10-15-10, 02:43 PM

i play it allot both online and live and the preferred strategyis to play queen/ten or better
it works more than 50% of the time

Would you ever stay on a queen or king high or does it depend on what hands you had before that or your streak of winning and losing hands in a row.

thanks

I play everything unless the dealers upcard is Q or better and i don't have it beat

This is stat correct way to play--anything else is more edge to the house.

then what would be your game of choice?

**crustyme** · 10-15-10, 09:56 PM

Play 4-card poker.

Way more fun and profitable.

**BeerDog99** · 10-15-10, 11:04 PM

The only pit game I get close to is Blackjack.

**ttwarrior1** · 10-15-10, 11:30 PM

uh the dealer has no upcard in 3 card poker

**PANAMHIEST** · 10-15-10, 11:49 PM

I hold anything king high or better, works ok

**tkim8404** · 10-15-10, 11:58 PM

Anything with a Queen you should play. If the dealer doesn't qualify you still take a push for your play and win on the ante instead of losing everything.

**QuantumLeap** · 10-15-10, 11:59 PM

Q64 is the right level. Ante bets using this hand or above will give the house a 3.3730% advantage. Playing anything else will give the house a better edge.

IMO the best source for general info about casino games is the Wizard of odds website... http://wizardofodds.com/threecardpoker

As other confirmed Q/6/4 is when you play your hand...

**Poker_Beast** · 10-16-10, 01:10 AM

Only played a few times but not have guessed that you are supposed to play Q64 and up. Worst is when you have a great hand and the dealer does not qualify.

House edge is larger than 3 card

Correct. The California casinos play a version of California 3-card poker where 1 card is visible and 2 cards are down. Of course the payout odds are different to compensate for this.

**Blacke** · 10-19-10, 05:04 AM

I play a lot by feel as well as the cards I'm dealt...I am very superstitious at 3 card poker

**63890000** · 10-20-10, 08:22 AM

only stay with a good hand no junk hard game to call

**PenGu** · 10-20-10, 01:04 PM

This is an awesome thread. I play 3 cardpoker for fun. I am going to practice with your Q or higher suggestions ;-)

**PenGu** · 10-20-10, 01:08 PM

Anyone ever play at betvoyager? I can play 3 card poker and with no house edge...that puts a new spin on things.

2 points now . The house always wins at the end

3 card poker is a fun game to play in person--online is frustrating.

**konck** · 10-22-10, 10:49 AM

Queen 10 is correct
