3 card poker

[carlo]

At one time I thought 3- card poker was exciting but by sitting down and seeing the odds on the various payoffs(thanks to 2+2) I realized it is a monster sucker play. One play which I can see is stacked against the player is the fact that the dealer needs a Q or higher for the player to be paid off(1:1). Otherwise there is no play and is a push.

For those who do this type of thing my question is what is the house edge only on this play as the player could be beating the house(i.e. 10 high vs 9 high) but not be paid off. All efforts appreciated. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
