about 2 years ago I stayed at the harrahs and played the Holdem bonus game late at night. 5 ante/5 bet then if you want to play pre flop you have to do 3-4x, flop 2x and turn/river 1x then once it's over you had a chance to bet for the bonus which is 4 extra cards basically another game. I did hit a straight flush on it that day on hit 900.00.... The next year they had that game and I want to say Luxor had the same game. But noticed a lot of them had the basic game without the bonus hand. Anyone else play this? Has this game expanded to every casino yet? Thanks Anthony
That game is called UltimateTexas hold'em, there is also one called Texas Hold'em bonus. The texas hold'em bonus is more of your whole card for bonus and ultimate is the game where you can bet 3-4X your ante. Both games are at all the casino. Ernie
While Texas hold em bonus is still fairly widespread, it seems to be disappearing due to the overwhelming popularity of ultimate Texas hold em
What you just described is not Texas Hold'Em Bonus, but Ultimate Texas Hold'em with the optional Six Card Bonus.
The 6 card bonus game is the Millionaire Maker. It's specific to CET properties, which is why you saw it at Harrah's, but not Luxor. Planet Hollywood, Paris, Bally's, Flamingo, Harrah's, Caesars, and Cromwell will all have this additional side bet, other casinos won't.
The 6 card bonus isn't exclusive to CET properties. The Golden Nugget has it as well and also on the 3 card poker games.
Yeah its the ultimate tx hold m game which i dont like so much. I like the normal tx holdm game much better, just love that game( and not only because i once hit the aces-> see my av) Since about two years they put that ridiculous 6 cards bonus bet on so in some cet casinos you can win a million( and i say not all as casino where i stay ballys its just 100.000 instead of a million...who cares 99,99 %of the time i dont play that sucker bet anyway)....gambling is all about luck and also in this game and ofcourse the house has some advantage. A couple of years i analysed this game one night and since than i stick to my own rules on this game.... as courtesey i give you my first couple of rules Always play the bonus hand.....( if you dont and aces aces are turned over like in my pic u will have nitemares for weeks) Never fold Good luck
