Card games:

Russian Poker


Betting boxes: from 1 to 3

Objective of the Game
Oasis Poker is a card game where the Player is to collect a better poker combination of cards than the Dealer’s one.
In Oasis Poker there is one deck, which comprises 52 cards from deuce to Ace of all four suits

How to play
There is one Player in the game, who plays against the dealer. There are 6 betting boxes marked on the table. Each Betting Box has two fields for bets. One of them is called the ANTE BET (pre-bet), the other is called the BET (the bet itself).
Before dealing the Player makes a pre-bet by placing one or several chips on the ANTE BET area. To do this the player should click a corresponding chip and place it on the playing field. Then the Player presses “Deal” button.
The Dealer draws five cards fives for the Player and for himself. The cards are dealt face-down, except the first Dealer’s card that appears to be dealt face-up. The Player looks at his cards and evaliates his hand. Sooner or later he will have to compare his hand with the Dealer’s one. A higher hand wins.

Poker Combinations
Each hand belongs to one of the 11 poker combinations. A combination is defined by the value of the cards and by their suits. The order in which the cards are received does not matter. The following combinations are ranged according to their rank in the descending order:

  • Royal Flush – the highest poker combination: 5 highest cards of the same suit (Ace–King–Queen–Jack-10).
  • Straight Flush – straight in one suit.
  • Four of a Kind – 4 cards of the same rank, for example, 4 Jacks or 4 Fives (plus one extra card).
  • Full or Full House – 3 cards of the same rank and 2 of another, for example, 6-6-6- K-K.
  • Flush – 5 cards of the same suit.
  • Straight – 5 consecutive cards, for example, 9-8-7-6-5. Suits of the cards do not matter. An Ace can be either the highest card (Ace-King-Queen-Jack-10) or the lowest card in the combination (5-4-3-2-Ace). Ace within a combination does not make up a Straight (3-2-Ace-King-Queen).
  • Three of a Kind – 3 cards of the same rank, for example, 9-9-9-Queen-4.
  • Two Pairs – two cards of the same rank and two of another, Ace-Ace-5-5-10.
  • One Pair – two cards of the same rank, for example, 8-8-King-4-2.
  • Ace-King – an ace and a king of any suits, for example, Ace-King-8-7-3.
  • No Hand – cards do not make any of the combinations mentioned above, for example, Jack-10-7-5-2.

The higher the combination, the higher the hand. If two hands have the same combinations, they are valued as in the regular poker by the rank of the cards.

A few examples:

  • Ace-King-Jack-3-2 is higher than Ace-King-10-9-8 (Jack is higher than 10);
  • Pair 5-5-4-3-2 is higher than 4-4-Ace-King-Queen (only values of paired cards are compared);
  • Pair 5-5-Queen-3-2 is higher than 5-5-Jack-10-9 (Queen is higher than Jack);
  • Two pairs Ace-Ace-2-2-3 is higher than King-King-Queen-Queen-Ace (the values of the higher pair cards are compared);
  • Straight King-Queen-Jack-10 is the highest, 5-4-3-2-Ace is the lowest;
  • Full 3-3-3-2-2 is higher than 2-2-2-Ace-Ace (the value of Three of a Kind is higher than Pair).

There are no priorities between the suits. That is why two pairs of the same rank have the same value. For example, Hearts Flush Royal counts the same as Clubs Flush Royal.
After looking at his hand, a Player decides which of the three possible decisions to make:
Decision 1. Surrender immediately. The Player presses “Surrender” button, the ANTE BET is lost and the game is over.
Decision 2. Continue playing with cards he has.If the Player makes this decision, he presses “Deal” button which automatically makes the bet twice his ANTE BET. Sometimes this procedure is called 'Raising the Ante Bet'.
Decision 3. Buy a sixth card to have a higher combination. To do this you can press “Buy” button. But when the Player’s cards are compared to the Dealer’s hand only the the Player’s strongest five-card combination will be counted. For example, in the hand of Queen-Queen-Queen-Queen-8-8, the last eight will not be counted. Purchase of the sixth card costs one ANTE BET.
Decision 4. Try change cards in order to get a better combination. The Player can change up to five cards. To do this he should choose them by ckicking them and then press “Change” button. The change of any amount of cards costs one ANTE. Instead of them the Dealer will draw the same number of new cards.
The Player looks at his cards again and, if the change was successful, he makes Decision 2. If it is not so, the Player can make the first Decision and stop the game at once. There are no more alternatives left.
When the Player changes his cards, there is one restriction: change will be impossible, if the Player has not enough money on his account to make the Bet.

After the Player has made his decision the Dealer opens his cards. If the Dealer has any card combinations in his hand, his cards are compared to those of the Player’s. If the Player’s hand is lower, he loses all his wager. If the Dealer and the Player have equal hands, the Player keeps his bets.
Unlike in Oasis Poker, in Russian Poker the Ante is not paid if the Dealer has got a combination. However, the bet does pay according to the poker combination.

Here is the chart of a payout ratio:

Combination Pays
Royal Flush 100 : 1
Straight Flush 50 : 1
Four of a Kind 20 : 1
Full or Full House 7 : 1
Flush 5 : 1
Straight 4 : 1
Three of a Kind 3 : 1
Two Pairs 2 : 1
One Pair 1 : 1
Ace-King 1 : 1

Second Poker Combination
The main difference between Oasis Poker and Russian Poker is that besides the winning combination the Player can have the second combination, which will be payed also. But at least one card of the second combination must be omitted in the first one.

A few examples:

  • Ace-Ace-Ace-8-9 : One Pair(Ace-Ace) + Ace-King(Ace-King) pay 2 to 1.
  • 2-2-Ace-King-9 : One Pair(2-2) + Ace-King(Ace-King) pay 2 to 1.
  • Ace-Ace-Ace-Ace-7-7 : Four of a Kind(Ace-Ace-Ace-Ace) + Full House(Ace-Ace-Ace-7-7) pay 27 to 1.
  • Ace-King-Queen-Jack-10-9 : Straight(Ace-King-Queen-Jack-10) + Straight(King-Queen-Jack-10-9) pay 8 to 1. If all cards are of the same suit then it is Royal Flush + Straight Flush and pay 150 to 1.
  • Ace-Ace-Ace-Ace-9 : Four of a Kind pays 20 to 1. You cannot consider this combination as Four of a Kind(Ace-Ace-Ace-Ace) + Three of a Kind(Ace-Ace-Ace), because all cards of the second would-be combination are part of the first one.

The Dealer Does Not Qualify
The above is when the Dealer has a poker combination. If this is not the case, then the Player’s cards do not matter and it is said that 'The Dealer does not qualify'. In either case, the Player wins, even if he has 'No hand'. His winnings will equal his Ante Bet. However, such winnings will look bleak if the Player has Four of a Kind or Straight Flush. In Russian Poker the Player can try to change the situation by buying the game for the Dealer.
If the Dealer does not qualify, he offers the Player to buy the game for him by paying for one of the Dealer's cards change. The Dealer discards the highest card in his hand and takes one from the deck. If the Dealer gets a combination, the hands are compared and winnings, if any, are paid. If after the change, the Dealer still does not qualify, then the Player gets back his bet only. Even the Ante Bet is not paid.

You can play Russian Poker either for fun (Play Demo) or for real money (Play). Play and win!

Before any cards are dealt, the player must wager. He does this by placing his bet in the designated space in front of his table position. The dealer then deals two cards to each of the players, and two to himself (one of the dealer's cards is dealt face up and one is dealt facing down). Face cards (kings, queens and jacks) count as 10, ace counts as one or 11 (as the player chooses) and all other cards are counted at their face value.
