Let Them Ride is a great version of poker that has been translated to your computer screens by the Playtech software platform. Playtech has outdone themselves in providing a poker suite that is second to none, and Let Them Ride is one game the poker lover should not miss out on.
Make no mistake, Let them ride is a moderately difficult version of poker. Poker is a game of skill and therefore should be played with some strategy. Let them Ride offers players the opportunity to earn the best possible poker odds and potentially high payouts.
Essentially the player is given the opportunity to place three bets. The game is played with a five card hand and the player places his wager in each of the three spaces provided on the table. Card rankings are the same as any standard game of poker although each player is only dealt three cards.
The dealer is also dealt three cards and he discards one card leaving him with two cards which makes up the balance of the cards in each players hand. After the player has seen his cards he is offered the opportunity to retract one bet, or Let Them Ride, after the dealer reveals one card, the player is offered another opportunity to retract his bet of Let Them Ride, and so on, until the player folds or the winning hand is revealed. One small tip, fold you hand if you do not have a queen or at least a pair of 10s.

The ability of the Playtech software to make you feel as though you are actually on the casino floor playing poker is remarkable. Players are able to choose their currency and language of preference and the site offers regular sit and go or more extended tournaments. The quality of the graphics is fantastic and the accompanying sounds definitely give the player the impression they are playing live poker.
