How to Play Mississippi Stud Poker

Mississippi Stud is a poker-based game where the player just needs a pair of Jacks or higher to win. Any pair of 6s through 10s will be a push. To play, Players make an Ante bet to receive their two cards. The Dealer will place three community cards face down in the middle of the layout. Once all cards are dealt, Players will look at their two cards and then may either fold or make the 3rd Street bet of one to three times their Ante. The Dealer will then reveal the first community card and Players may either fold or make the 4th Street bet of one to three times their Ante. The Dealer will then reveal the second community card and Players can either fold or make the 5th Street bet of one to three times their Ante.

After the Dealer turns over the final community card, they will resolve all bets left in action. Players win if their five-card hand contains a pair of Jacks or better.

Note: when a player folds, they forfeit all bets left in action except the optional 3-Card-Bonus Wager.

3rd Street Wager:

An additional wager made by a Player, in an amount equal to one, two or three times the Player’s Ante Wager, after the Player has been dealt the initial two cards.

4th Street Wager:

An additional wager made by a Player, in an amount equal to one, two or three times the Player’s Ante Wager, after the first community card is
revealed by the Dealer.
