Three Card Poker with Six Card Bonus is another version of Three Card Poker offered by the casino. In this variant, players can combine the dealer’s three cards with their three cards to form a six-card bonus hand combination.

Furthermore, the players get different payouts based on the hand combination they form. For Six Card Bonus, a player can only place a Six Card Bonus wager if he/she has also placed an Ante wager prior to the initial deal.

Three Card Poker in Las Vegas requires a $10 minimum bet. This is the most common minimum bet. However, there are at least a dozen casinos with a $5 minimum wager.

In fact, even cheaper wagers exist for gamblers. Video Three Card Poker machines on the stadium at Treasure Island require just a $2 minimum bet.
