Players place a base wager on either a first hand or a second hand. Proposition wagers for pushes, ties, and bonus holdings may be placed. Three cards are dealt to a first and a second hand. Either hand may automatically win if it includes a predetermined three-card combination. If neither hand automatically wins, the hands are divided into two-card and single-card component hands. The component hands are compared. A tie occurs if the cards of each hand are equal in rank. A push occurs if each hand has one component hand that outranks the corresponding component hand of the other hand. Otherwise, a hand wins when both component hands outrank or tie the corresponding component hands of the other hand. Players wagering on the winning hand are rewarded.
