Before the flop you either fold or commit a bet worth exactly two antes, and after the flop and again after the turn one more ante-sized bet is yours to make or skip. No dealer minimum applies, so the dealer&#8217;s hand is always compared with yours, and the odd feature is the ante, which makes a profit only when you win holding a straight or better. A separate bonus bet ignores the board entirely and looks at your first two cards alone. The sections below take each bet in turn, show how many chips a round can put down and explain the bonus paytable, then finish with five rounds counted out in chips.<\/p>\n\n\n<style id=\"bg-tk-css\">.bg-tk{background:#fff;border-radius:14px;padding:24px;margin:28px 0;box-shadow:0 4px 14px rgba(3,20,38,.06);border:1px solid #eef0f3;position:relative;overflow:hidden;}.bg-tk::before{content:\"\";position:absolute;left:0;top:0;bottom:0;width:5px;}.bg-tk[data-theme=\"bold-gambler\"]::before{background:#FF4A4A;}.bg-tk[data-theme=\"dica\"]::before{background:#FD5000;}.bg-tk-title{margin:0 0 14px !important;font-size:1.15rem;font-weight:800;line-height:1.3;}.bg-tk[data-theme=\"bold-gambler\"] .bg-tk-title{color:#031426;}.bg-tk[data-theme=\"dica\"] .bg-tk-title{color:#005259;}.bg-tk-body{font-size:.95rem;line-height:1.65;color:#1f2937;}.bg-tk-body p{margin:0 0 10px;}.bg-tk-body p:last-child{margin-bottom:0;}.bg-tk-body ul,.bg-tk-body ol{margin:0 0 10px;padding-left:20px;}.bg-tk-body li{margin-bottom:10px;line-height:1.6;}.bg-tk-body li:last-child{margin-bottom:0;}.bg-tk-body li strong{color:#0f172a;}.bg-tk[data-theme=\"bold-gambler\"] .bg-tk-body ul li::marker{color:#FF4A4A;font-weight:800;}.bg-tk[data-theme=\"dica\"] .bg-tk-body ul li::marker{color:#FD5000;font-weight:800;}<\/style><div class=\"bg-tk\" data-theme=\"bold-gambler\"><h3 class=\"bg-tk-title\">Key Takeaways: Texas Hold&#039;em Bonus Poker Rules<\/h3><div class=\"bg-tk-body\"><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Bet Progression:<\/strong> Staying in requires a 2x ante flop bet, followed by optional turn and river bets (1x ante each), reaching up to 5x ante total.<\/li>\n<li><strong>No Qualification:<\/strong> The dealer has no minimum qualifying rank; player and dealer best five-card hands are always compared at showdown.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ante Win Rule:<\/strong> The ante pays 1 to 1 only when beating the dealer with a straight or higher; lower winning hands return the ante as a push.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Optional Bonus:<\/strong> Evaluates hole cards independently of the board, hitting on 9.50% of deals with an 8.54% house edge.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-the-bets-and-their-order\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Bets and Their Order<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Every bet has a fixed place in the round, and the table lists them in the order they are made.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><td><strong>Bet<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Made<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Size<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Optional<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Ante<\/td><td>Before any card is dealt<\/td><td>One base unit<\/td><td>No<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Bonus<\/td><td>Before any card is dealt<\/td><td>Any amount you like<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Flop bet<\/td><td>Once you have looked at your hole cards, ahead of the flop<\/td><td>Twice the ante<\/td><td>Only by folding<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Turn bet<\/td><td>After the flop<\/td><td>One ante<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>River bet<\/td><td>After the turn<\/td><td>One ante<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A fold ahead of the flop costs you the ante, and the round stops there. A bonus bet already on the table is settled according to the rule set in use, which the information panel of the game spells out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-which-hand-wins\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which Hand Wins<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Each side scores the best five cards out of the seven it can see, and the higher hand takes the round. If you want the selection routine, the <a href=\"https:\/\/boldgambler.com\/ca\/casino\/poker\/texas-holdem-hands\/\">Texas Hold&#8217;em hands<\/a> guide walks through it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Take the community cards Qc Js 9h 4d 2c. A player holding Tc 8d has a straight, queen-high, and a dealer holding Qh Qd has three of a kind, queens, with jack and nine kickers. The straight outranks three of a kind, and it also meets the ante&#8217;s requirement for a profit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-paying-each-bet\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Paying Each Bet<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The three later bets behave like plain even-money wagers, winning 1 to 1 when you win and disappearing when the dealer wins. Only the ante has a stricter condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><td><strong>Result<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Ante<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Later bets<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>You win and hold a straight or higher<\/td><td>Wins 1 to 1<\/td><td>Win 1 to 1<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>You win with a hand below a straight<\/td><td>Returned<\/td><td>Win 1 to 1<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Both hands are identical<\/td><td>Returned<\/td><td>Returned<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>The dealer takes the round<\/td><td>Lost<\/td><td>Lost<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some versions set a higher bar. Under the Atlantic City variation the ante pays solely on a flush or higher, so the rule printed on your game screen is the one to follow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-how-many-chips-a-round-can-put-down\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Many Chips a Round Can Put Down<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because the flop bet equals two antes, the money on the table builds quickly for anyone who stays in. The table tracks a round with a 4-chip ante in which every optional bet is placed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><td><strong>Point in the round<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Chips put down<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Running total<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Ante<\/td><td>4<\/td><td>4<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Flop bet<\/td><td>8<\/td><td>12<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Turn bet<\/td><td>4<\/td><td>16<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>River bet<\/td><td>4<\/td><td>20<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Five times the ante is the most a round can cost before any bonus bet, and a fold before the flop costs one ante.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-the-bonus-bet\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Bonus Bet<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You place the bonus bet before a card is dealt, and it ignores who wins the hand. It looks at your two hole cards, and at the dealer&#8217;s two only for the top prize. Whether a fold affects the bonus bet depends on the rule set, so confirm it in the game panel. The table shows one common paytable with the chance of each result in a deal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><td><strong>Your hole cards<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Probability<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Bonus pays<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Two aces, with two aces in the dealer&#8217;s hand as well<\/td><td>0.000369%<\/td><td>1,000-1<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Two aces, with something else in the dealer&#8217;s hand<\/td><td>0.452%<\/td><td>30-1<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Ace-king of one suit<\/td><td>0.302%<\/td><td>25-1<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Ace-queen or ace-jack of one suit<\/td><td>0.603%<\/td><td>20-1<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Ace-king of mixed suits<\/td><td>0.905%<\/td><td>15-1<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Pair of kings, queens or jacks<\/td><td>1.36%<\/td><td>10-1<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Ace-queen or ace-jack of mixed suits<\/td><td>1.81%<\/td><td>5-1<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Pair of tens down to deuces<\/td><td>4.07%<\/td><td>3-1<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Any other start<\/td><td>90.50%<\/td><td>No payout<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A paying start turns up in just 9.50% of deals, meaning 126 out of 1,326 two-card combinations, so about nine bonus bets in ten come back empty. Two aces on both sides at once arrive about once in 270,725 deals. This paytable carries a house edge of 8.54%, and other tables are in use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-exercises-five-rounds-from-deal-to-river\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Exercises: Five Rounds From Deal to River<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Each round uses an ante of 10 chips and a flop bet of 20 chips, and the turn and river bets are 10 chips apiece unless a question says otherwise. You are shown the board, your own two cards and the dealer&#8217;s two, and you decide how many chips the round wins or loses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"faq-section\">\n    <h3 class=\"faq-title\"><span>\u2753<\/span> Practice: Count Up Each Round<\/h3>\n\n    <details class=\"faq-item\">\n        <summary><h4>Community cards: Jd Td 9c 3s 2h.

The turn bet and the river bet are each one ante, and you may decline either of them without leaving the hand. Declining a bet means it earns nothing, but it also puts nothing at risk. <strong>Only the flop bet is compulsory<\/strong>.\n        <\/div>\n    <\/details>\n\n    <details class=\"faq-item\">\n        <summary><h4>Which hands make the ante win?<\/h4><\/summary>\n        <div class=\"faq-answer\">\n            To profit on the ante you must beat the dealer while holding at least a straight. A weaker winning hand returns the ante, and so does a tie. A few versions raise the bar to a flush. <strong>The ante wins only on a straight or higher<\/strong>.\n        <\/div>\n    <\/details>\n\n    <details class=\"faq-item\">\n        <summary><h4>Can the dealer fail to qualify?<\/h4><\/summary>\n        <div class=\"faq-answer\">\n            No such rule exists in this game. The dealer plays every round and the hands are compared in full, with the higher five-card hand winning. The dealer&#8217;s cards also matter for the bonus bet, but only for the top prize. <strong>The dealer&#8217;s hand is always compared<\/strong>.\n        <\/div>\n    <\/details>\n\n    <details class=\"faq-item\">\n        <summary><h4>Does a lost hand cancel the bonus bet?<\/h4><\/summary>\n        <div class=\"faq-answer\">\n            No. Only your two hole cards count for the bonus bet, which is why it can pay while the dealer takes the round. This paytable starts at 3 to 1 for a low pair and rises to 30 to 1 for two aces, with a house edge of 8.54%. <strong>The bonus bet depends on your first two cards<\/strong>.\n        <\/div>\n    <\/details>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Texas Hold&#8217;em Bonus Poker pits two private cards plus five shared ones against the dealer&#8217;s, and it asks for a decision at each stage of the board.
