| Red Dog is a simple game from
the old West played with three cards. After receiving
two cards, the player wins if the next card dealt is ranked
between the first two cards. If all three cards are the
same rank, the player wins 11 to 1.
After placing the initial bet, the player receives
two cards. If the two cards are different, the player
must decide either to raise the bet (with an amount
equal to the initial bet) or continue with the current
bet before receiving the third card.
The player wins if the third card falls numerically
between the first two cards. Winning hands are paid
based on the spread between the first two cards—how
far apart the first two cards rank. The player loses
the total bet—including any raised bet—if
the third card does not fall between the first two cards.
When the first two cards have consecutive ranks (for
example, 5 and 6), then the hand is a tie and all bets
are returned to the player.
When the first two cards have the same rank, the third
card is automatically dealt. If the third card has the
same as the first two, the player wins eleven times
the initial bet. If the third card is different than
the first two, the game is a push, and all bets are
returned to the player
