Ultimate Texas Hold 'Em (also known as Ultimate Texas holdem and Ultimate Texas Hold'em) is registered trademark of Bally Gaming, π· Inc. and refers to a reinvented variant of the classic poker game Texas hold 'em. In this variation, the player π· does not compete against other players. Instead, they play only against the dealer. At any point during the course of π· the hand, the player is free to make one raise. In this poker-based game (community cards), the earlier the raise π· is made, the higher its value is.
The game begins with the player making a blind bet and an ante. They π· are also provided with an optional Trips side which allows them to acquire a payout whether their hand loses or π· wins. Ultimate Texas Hold 'em is different from other poker-based games in the sense that the ante still remains in π· play even after the players made a raise and even if the dealer does not open.[1]
Objective [ edit ]
The format π· of Ultimate Texas Hold βEm is similar to other variants of poker available in most casinos and online poker sites. π· The player and the dealer will both get two cards. The player will then be allowed to look at his π· cards and decide if he wishes to check or raise four times the ante. Another option available to the player π· is raising three times. If the player decides to raise at any point during the hand, the action will end π· from his end.
After deciding to raise, the player will be shown three cards which are referred to as the βflopβ. π· The other players who did not raise before the flop will be given the choice to raise twice the ante. π· Another option available for the player would be checking. After the table has resolved the post-flop betting, the last two π· cards will be revealed. By this time, the players will be required to either match their ante or fold. After π· this, the dealer will reveal his two cards and grade the hand. In order for the dealer to qualify, he π· must possess at least a paired board. The ante pushes if the dealer fails to qualify. The same is true π· even in a scenario where the player possesses a hand that loses to the dealer. On the other hand, if π· the dealer qualifies, the one who wins the ante bet will be the player with the best hand.
