How to Play Texas Hold’em Bonus Poker
Any two cards can win! That is the beauty of the game of Texas Hold’em and the same is true for Texas Hold’em Bonus Poker! The best "hole cards" (2-card starting hand) sometimes may not win... and the least desirable starting hand (hole-cards) becomes the winning poker hand, after all the community cards are exposed.
Two Cards are dealt to each Player; Two Cards to the Dealer; and Five Community Cards are dealt face-up in the center for both Players and Dealers to use in any combination (3, 4 or all of the 5 Community Cards) to make the highest ranked poker hand. All wagers (Ante, Bonus, Flop, Turn and River) are made by the players before receiving and viewing the cards, each step of the way.
| ANTE | Each Player makes an Ante wager to receive 2 cards. |
| BONUS | Players also have the option to place a Bonus Jackpot Wager. |
| 2-CARDS | A 2-card hand is dealt to each Player and the Dealer. |
| FLOP OR FOLD |
Players wishing to continue to play must wager twice the amount of the Ante. Players not wishing to continue may hand-in their 2-cards, forfeiting their Ante wager and Bonus Jackpot wager. |
| 3-CARDS | 3-community cards are now placed “face-up” on the table. |
| TURN | Players now have the OPTION to not bet or bet equal to the Ante. |
| 1-CARD | A 4th Community Card is turned face-up on the table |
| RIVER | Players now have the OPTION to not bet or bet equal to the Ante. |
| 1-CARD | A 5th Community Card is turned face-up on the table. |
Any 2 Cards Can Win!

(not the dealer’s hand)
When a Player wins, the Player retains his/her Ante and is paid even money on the total FLOP + TURN +RIVER wagers.
When a Player’s winning hand is a “STRAIGHT” or higher, they are paid an additional amount on his/her Ante
All poker-ranked hands of equal value between Player and Dealer will be considered a “tie” or “push”
Optional Bonus wagers are paid no matter who wins the hand (Player or Dealer)
