Asian Stud A popular casino game in Asia has made its away across the ocean and is now found in casinos in North America. The goal is to score the most points. Aces and the one joker are worth 1 and each card is worth their numerical value with tens and face cards worth 10. The dealer deals 5 cards to each player. The players may then evalulate their hand and choose to raise or fold. The player then splits the cards into a 3-card-hand and 2-card-hand. The 3-card-hand must total 10, 20 or 30 points to qualify otherwise the 2-card-hand is irrelevant. If the 3-card-hand does not qualify the only way for the player to win is if the dealer also does not qualify in which case any player who did not fold wins. If the 3-card-hand qualifies for both the player and the dealer then the points in the 2-card-hand is calculated To place a bet, first touch the 'ANTE' betting area circle, then click on the chip denomination. Bonus bet may only be placed after ANTE bet is made. Minimum wager for ANTE bet is $5 and minimum bet for bonus bet is $1. FREE coins issued every day!
