One of the dealer’s cards is taken out of the game leaving the other 2 as community cards. The idea of “Let it Ride” is that each player executes his best poker hand using his 3 personal cards and 2 community cards.

In this point, only the personal cards are visible for the player. After taking a look to his personal cards, the player must decide whether he withdraws his bet or he “Let it Ride”. With all the bets on the table, the dealer turns up one of the community cards. Now, the player must decide again if he “Let it Ride” or if withdraws his bet.

The player can withdraw a bet in the game if he is having a bad hand. The other two bets can remain in the table if this is what the player wants. With the final decision made, the dealer shows the last community card. The players must now reveal their personal hands and the bets are paid according to the hand that each player has. Any hand lower that 10 means that the player loses all the bets he has made in the table.
