  • First decision (3 cards): let your first bet ride only with a paying hand (pair of 10s+), 3 to a royal flush, or 3 to a straight flush (a run, a 1-gap with one high card, or a 2-gap with two high cards). Otherwise pull it back.
  • Second decision (4 cards): let your second bet ride only with a paying hand, 4 to a flush, 4 to an open-ended straight, or 4 to a straight flush. Otherwise pull it back.
  • Your third bet always stays in — you never pull that one.
