Vegas Three Card Rummy crowns you as a winner when you get a total which is less than the total in the dealer’s hand. The dealer as you know doesn’t qualify for the game if he gets a total which is higher than 20. So, it is always sane to raise your bet when you have a total that is less than 20. Raising your bet when you get a total of 20 or higher in the game of Vegas Three Card Rummy would be absolutely foolish.

The most practical Vegas Three Card Rummy tips is to raise your chances of winning bigger rewards in the game is to play on the bonus bet if possible. The reason is simple! The bonus bet offers you a much better payout rate than the payouts under the Ante wager option. An ante wager gives a payout of 4:1 for the hand that carries a total of zero whereas the bonus bet provides the payout of 25:1 for the same. This can be better explained through an illustration:

You win $20 (4X5=20) if you bet with a $5 on an ante and get any of the triples like, 10-10-10 that gets you a total of 0.

However, if you wager with the same amount ($5) on the bonus bet, you win $125 (25X5=125) if you are lucky enough to get a total of zero –either through a triples, a pair, two card suited run, or three card suited run.

So, you can see for yourself that the bonus bet offers you with much better payouts for similar totals as in the raised bets.

Moreover, the bonus bet also leads you to the highest payout in the game, i.e. 100:1 for the A-2-3 suited run. So do check out the payouts on the different hands to know where you stand.

Whatever amount you decide to wager with on a single hand of Vegas Three Card Rummy…split it among the two betting options in the game- the ante and the bonus bet.

If you have decided to bet with a total of $10 on one hand, make sure you wager with $5 on the ante and the rest of the $5 on the bonus bet.
