Games like poker, blackjack, roulette, and craps are so popular they are casino game categories all by themselves. However, land-based casinos all across Michigan also offer a variety of table games that don’t fit under these basic banners.
Games with names like Let It Ride, Casino Hold’em, Three-Card Poker, and Mississippi Stud aren’t the most widely known, but they are popular nonetheless.
Different Let It Ride hands trigger different payments due to the rarity of the hand. The best hand to get in Let It Ride is the royal hand, as it has the lowest hit rate and highest bonus. Most of the Let It Ride strategy deals with when to seek straight and exhaust and hand out better odds. To begin a game of Let It Ride poker, you must place the minimum bet on all three circles. If the minimum bet is $5, then you must place chips worth $5 on each circle, for a total $15. In a land-based casino, the Shuffle Master machine will then deal out three cards at a time, and the dealer will place these cards in front of each player.
There are online versions of most of these table games out there, and since players seem to flock to them in ever increasing numbers, most Michigan online casinos will likely end up running a few virtual versions.
The major difference between the table games at land-based casinos and the same titles at online casinos is traditional casino equipment is traded in for a digital interfaces and computerized random number generators.
- In some respects, Let It Ride resembles Texas holdem poker. You get 3 cards, and the dealer gets 2 cards. The 2 dealer cards are community cards that are shared by you and the other players at the table. You get paid out based on the 5-card poker hand ranking from your 3 cards and the 2 dealer cards. But if it were as simple as just dealing the.
- The MGM Resorts family of casinos along The Strip might not have a progressive jackpot attached to their table games, but at MGM Grand, the minimum bet on Let It Ride is $25. The maximum limit tops out at $500, so this game definitely isn’t for everybody, but if you want to press your luck and go for major base game scores for non-Royal Flush.
Obviously, computer-based games don’t use physical cards, dice, chips or other equipment. Instead, the outcome of each hand, roll, or otherwise is determined by a computer, betting is electronic, and what you see on the screen is just a virtual representation of traditional casino gameplay.

Michigan table games basics and odds/payback
Here’s a look at the most popular table games and the ones most likely to make the jump online, including your chances of winning in each:
Criss Cross Poker
Criss Cross Poker is a card game where you try to make the best poker hand you can. You get two cards and five community cards are dealt face down in a criss-cross pattern.
You get paid based on the best five-card hand you can make, combining your cards and either the “across” or “down” community cards.
The payouts start with a push for pairs of sixes through 10, 1:1 on jacks or better and up to 500:1 for a Royal Flush.
You start with two equal bets, one each for the across and down hands. After the cards are dealt you can fold or make an across bet of up to three times your original wager. The dealer turns one across card up. The betting process is repeated for each down and across card.
The middle card is your last opportunity to bet and a single bet covers both hands.
The Return to Player (RTP) on Criss Cross Poker is a lowly 95.7%.
That’s also a reasonable guideline for the down bet, but you have the advantage there of having seen two across cards. That can influence borderline hands. If you have 6-2 leading to a 1x across bet, and the two exposed across cards are sixes, then there’s only one more six available. That limits the value of the down hand, making it one to skip.
Four-Card Poker
Four-Card Poker is a lot like Three-Card Poker in that the objective is to try to make a better poker hand than the dealer. You bet and get five cards while the dealer gets five face down cards and one face up.
Once the cards are dealt, you can either fold and lose the initial bet, or bet up to three times that wager to continue. Tie or beat the dealer and you win. Plus there are bonuses paid based on the strength of your hand, starting with three of a kind.
There is also an optional Aces Up bet that pays based on the strength of your hand.
The base RTP on Four-Card Poker is great at 98.02%.
High Card Flush
Let It Ride Progressive Poker How To Play
The goal in High Card Flush is to make the highest flush with the most of your seven cards included.
To begin, you make your wager and get seven cards, the same number as the dealer. At this point you can fold or continue by making another bet. The maximum wager is determined by the size of your flush. You can bet up to three times the original bet with six- or seven-card flushes, two times with five-card flushes and make an equal-sized bet with two-, three-, or flour-card flushes.
You win if you can beat the dealer’s three-card flush at nine-high or better. You push on the second bet and get paid on the first if the dealer does not qualify.
You can also place Flush Bonus and Straight Flush Bonus side bets at the start of the hand that payout based on how many cards are in your flush and straight flushes.
Playing optimally, the games RTP is 97.36%.
Let It Ride
Let it Ride is a card game where your goal is to make the best five-card poker hand using your three cards and two community cards.
You make three equal-sized bets. The dealer then places two community cards down in the middle of the table and deals out three cards to each player at the table.
You then get two chances to take back one or two of the bets. You can fold and take two of the three back after looking at your cards. If you wait, you can fold and take back just the final bet after the first community card is revealed.
If you continue, the dealer turns the second community card face up and hands are paid according to a specific payout based on the strength of the hand, which start with a pair of 10s.
There is also an optional three-card bonus side bet. It pays based on the strength of your three cards alone.
The RTP on Let It Ride is 96.49%.
Mississippi Stud
Mississippi Stud requires you to try to make the best five-card poker hand using your two cards and three community cards.
You make your wager and the cards are dealt with two to each player and three in the middle. Once you’ve seen your cards you must bet at least one to three times your original wager to continue, or fold. Following the players’ decision, the dealer turns over one of the community cards and there’s another similar betting round.
The dealer then turns over the second community card, followed by a final betting round before the final community card is revealed and all bets are paid according to the strength of your hand. Payouts begin with a push for pairs of sixes through 10s and 1:1 for jacks or better and up to 500:1 for a Royal Flush.

Michigan specific rules for table games
Michigan gaming laws don’t dictate the rules for table games. Instead, Detroit casinos submit the rules for the games they wish to host to the Michigan Gaming Control Board for approval. The games are then tested for fairness.
Those laws also do not dictate the minimum and maximum bets allowed on these games. Instead, the board allows Detroit casinos to set minimum and maximum bets and the casinos can change these at any time simply by posting a sign and advising players.
