Poker players looking for a new experience can try their hand at Tropicana Atlantic City’s two new poker games—Asia Poker and Three Card Draw Poker. Asia Poker is now live in the Asian Games room “Jade Palace” and Three Card Draw Poker is in the main casino right next to some of players’ other favorite poker type games.
“These exciting new poker games are just the latest example of Tropicana’s commitment to deliver MORE fun, value and variety to our players,” explained Steve Callender, General Manager of Tropicana Atlantic City.
Asia Poker
Based on an Ancient Chinese game “13 Cards” Asia Poker is played with the same 53-card deck that Pai Gow Poker uses and has many of the same basic principles. Players receive seven cards which they form three separate hands of four, two and one cards each called High, Medium and Low. The objective is to out-rank the dealer in at least two of the three hands. Hands are paid one to one, with no commission. A separate Bonus bet where the player’s hand is compared to a paytable gives players more ways to play and large payouts to win.
Three Card Draw Poker
Three-Card Draw Poker as the name implies gives the player the chance to improve their original three card poker hand. An Ante bet gets you in the game, you receive three cards. If you like your cards you can match the Ante and make an “In to Win” wager to play on. If you prefer, match your Ante and make a “Draw” wager, discard one card and receive a replacement, you’re still in the game, if not fold and forfeit the Ante. You play head up against the dealer. The dealer’s hand always qualifies. Bonuses are paid according to paytables. A separate optional bonus bet of your First Three Cards against a paytable increases your chances for a big payout.
In addition to these two new games, Tropicana recently moved and completely renovated the Poker Room to a new private, location behind Boogie Nights. This full-service facility has a spacious design featuring new poker tables, TVs, adjustable seats and is now non-smoking.
