Introduction
Flop Poker is a poker variant I have seen in many of the casinos in Biloxi. I've had reports of the game in other parts of the country too, like Atlantic City and Indiana. The game is easy to learn, community cards cause players to often win or lose in unison, and there is a possibility of a large win. A unique feature is the 'pot' bet, which carries a zero house edge.
Rules
If you are an advanced poker player and are interested in seeing the flop, then you are either in a good position or hold top cards. If you are in a good position having an average hand, you’d better get back to previous lessons and read them again. You should evaluate your position relative to preflop aggressor.

- Game uses a single deck of cards and all hands are scored according to traditional poker rules.
- Play starts with the player making an Ante wager and a Pot wager. The ante wager may be any amount subject to table limits. The Pot wager is always the table minimum, which in my experience is usually $5.
- Each player gets three cards dealt face down. The player may look at his own cards but sharing of information is not allowed.
- Player has two options, raise or fold. If the player folds he forfeits his Ante but but retains his cards for purposes of the Pot bet. If player raises it is in the form of a Flop bet equal to his Ante bet.
- The dealer then deals a three card flop face up. These are community cards and may be used by all players.
- The dealer will determine the best poker hand using the player's three cards and any two of the flop cards. If the player has at least a pair of jacks the Ante wager will pay even money and the Flop bet according to the pay table below.
- Finally, the player with the highest poker hand, again using his own three cards and any two flop cards, shall win all Pot bets. If two or more players have the exact same valued hand then the Pot bets will be chopped by the players with the high hand.
