I'm looking for a winning strategy for this game. Obviously if you start with a pair you should let it ride no matter what, but is there a any other starting hand where you should let it ride: like three to a flush or straight. I have played nearly 1000 hands in the past week and haven't gotten a straight or a flush even once. Got a fullhouse a few times though.
Sometimes the game is good to me and sometimes it isn't- the way I usually play it is unless I have a winning hand in the flop without any additional cards, I only raise the flop if there are three high cards. Then, if fourth street doesn't give me a hand, I go back to checking. It's not a foolproof system though, and I've only gotten one full house once. Otherwise it's just been high pair, two pairs, or three of a kind.Quote:

After a few thousand hands myself, i quit let it ride. However i have had amazing luck with tri-card poker. I always bet the pair or better becuase that is where the money is at. I bet 25 bucks on pair+ and got three of a kind which paid a whole chit load like 250 bucks orr something like that.:smile:Quote:

i have never tried playing let it ride cause i dont know how to play it...lol
Let it Ride is a lot like Texas Hold'Em or other poker games, with a Flop, Turn, and River card. The difference is that you are not given any hole cards to help you make a hand. How the game works is this: you place a bet before being dealt the flop. In this game, only pairs with 10's or better win, aside from multiple pairs or a full house. Once you are dealt the flop, you are given the option to either raise or check, and then given that same option on the Turn and River. After all cards are dealt, your hand is scored based on the cards you were dealt, with a high pair being the lowest and a royal flush being the best hand, just like poker.Quote:

If you are, say 10 A K, then it is profitable to you to raise before the turn card. If the turn card fails to give you a winning hand, go back to checking on the river. If you get a hand at any point during the game you will still earn chips. If, on the other hand, say the flop already has a pair of Jacks or something that is already a winning hand, you'll want to raise both the turn and the river, as you'll earn more money even if you only end up with that high pair.
I hope that makes sense to everyone wondering about this game! I've had both good and bad luck with it, but on the whole it has been profitable for me to play so far.
I love let it ride. My favorite game in the casinos is carribean stud, and its kinda like that, Ive played a lot of hands and havent even hit a straight or a flush.. no matter. Cant stop playing that or blackjack. I figure the only strategy would be to only raise with 3 high cards off the bat, or connectors and suited cards with one or two higher than the ten u have to hit for the pair. other than that a little bet variance (which is complete luck) and youll do well. Ive done alright, so i guess thats somethin
played the game hit a full house on my third hand thought i had the answer to my dreams i would be at the store in about an hour or so well!!! back to posting better odds!!!
Ive tried this new strategy and it seems to be working..
Start with very minimal bets, either 1 2 or 5, something like that. Each new hand increase your bet by somewhere between 50-70 percent, dont get caught just doubling it!!. Once you score on a hand, cut your bet in half from where it is, and if you lose on that hand, just go back to the beginning bets, and start the process over. I have a +100 percent return on it, although im sure i havent seen enough hands. But its worked so far, try it out!
