Gaming 101: Crazy 4 Poker

At Four Winds Casinos, we understand that it can be intimidating to walk up to a table with seasoned players and try to learn a new game, so we're going to teach you how to play the exciting game of Crazy 4 Poker.

To Play

Like the traditional game of Poker, Crazy 4 Poker uses a standard 52 card deck. The game features head-to-head play against the Dealer and two bonus bets – one mandatory, the other optional. Each player is dealt five cards and will use four to make the best hand.

Ante and Super Bonus

Crazy 4 Poker Rules

The Ante and Super Bonus bets facilitate head-to-head play against the Dealer. To begin the game, Players place two equal wagers: an Ante wager and a Super Bonus wager. After looking at their hands, Players may either fold (and lose both wagers), or they may stay in the game by making the Play wager. The Play wager must equal the Ante wager, unless the Player has a pair of Aces or better. With a pair of Aces or better, the Player may bet up to 3x the Ante.

Once the Players decide to play or fold, the Dealer will turn over their cards, discard one and play the top four. For the Dealer to play, their hand must be at least king-high, otherwise the Ante bet pushes. When the dealer doesn’t qualify the Play wager wins and the Ante pushes.

Super Bonus

The Super Bonus wins when the Player gets a straight or better. However, failure to get at least a straight does not result in an automatic loss of the Super Bonus. This bet pushes when the Player gets less than a straight, but beats or ties the Dealer.

Rules For Crazy 4 Poker

Hands of straight or better always receive Super Bonus payouts. When the Player has a straight or better but loses to the Dealer’s qualifying hand, he or she still wins the Super Bonus payouts and the original wager stays on the layout.

Optional Queens Up Side Wager

The Queens Up bet is optional. However, Players may make the Queens Up wager for any amount within the posted table limits. Players may bet more on the Queens Up bet than they bet on the Ante and Super Bonus. The Queens Up side bet wins when the Player receives a pair of Queens or better. Odds for this optional bet are printed on the table layout. The bet loses when the Player fails to get at least a pair of Queens.

Payouts

Now that you know the basics, try your luck at Crazy 4 Poker at Four Winds New Buffalo. If you are still unsure about playing, just let the Dealer know it’s your first time playing and they would be happy to assist you.

A newer poker-based table game found in many casinos is Four Card Poker. The game pits each player against the dealer and the object is to make the best four-card poker hand. As in Blackjack, you only have to beat the dealer's hand to win, not the other players. Here are the basic rules.

Difficulty: Easy

Time Required: 15 minutes

Here's How:

1. To start playing, each player makes an ante wager, and can also make a Aces Up. Only the ante wager bet is required, though.
2. Each player is dealt five cards, while the dealer gets six cards, one of which he will show face-up. The extra card is the house's advantage in this game.
3. After seeing your cards and the dealer's face-up card, you can either fold (in which case you lose your ante and/or aces up bet), or you can play by betting 1-3 times the amount of your ante. In other words, if your ante bet was $5 and you want to play, you can either bet $5, $10, or $15.
4. When betting is done, you discard one card and show your best 4-card hand. The best hands, in order are:
   • Four of a kind
   • Straight flush
   • Three of a kind
   • Flush
   • Straight
   • Two pair
   • One pair
   • High card
5. The dealer exposes all six of his cards and selects the best four-card poker hand to play.
6. Player by player, the dealer will determine if your hand beats his.
   If the dealer's hand is higher you lose the ante and raise.
   If the player's hand is higher or equal then you'll get one to one on your ante and raise.
   If your hand is three-of-a-kind of better, you will receive a bonus, even if the dealer's hand beats yours. The bonus amount is: 2 to 1 for three of a kind; 20 to 1 for a straight flush; 25 to 1 for four of a kind.
7. If you have played the Aces up bet, you can win even if the dealer's hand beats yours. Aces Up Wagers pay out for a pair of aces or better. The bonus amount varies from casino to casino and should be posted prominently at the table.

Tips:

1. The basic strategy for whether to fold or bet your hand, is that if you don't have at least a pair, fold. If you have a pair of 2s to 9s, bet one times your ante. If you have a pair of 10s or better, bet three times your ante.
