How to Play Extreme Texas Hold’em Poker

Live Extreme Texas Hold’em Poker is one of the most popular live dealer games at Stake.com. To play, you need to decide how much to bet on each hand, considering the betting options for this game (introduced below).

The game begins with an ante bet and blind bet, and you also need to decide whether to place an optional side bet called the Trips Bonus Bet. The side bet is a wager on what your best hand will be comprised of your two cards and three of the five community cards.

After placing your bets, the game begins, and the dealer lays out the community cards. There is a time limit between deals for you to decide whether to bet, fold, or raise.

If you stay in the game and beat the dealer, you will be paid out according to your bet amount and the poker hand that you have formed, as explained below.

Extreme Texas Hold’em Poker is a live casino game you can play against the house. Each round is played with a deck of 52 cards, and the aim of the game is for you to make a better 5-card poker hand than the dealer.

If you bet early, you can raise the ante by a multiple of x3 or x4. However, if you wait until all cards are dealt, you can only raise the ante by x1 or x2.

In Extreme Texas Hold’em Poker, the dealer must qualify for each betting round with a pair or better.
