Heads Up Hold'em
Heads-Up Hold’em from Stars Studio brings a modern twist to Texas Hold’em poker. Designed for solo play against the dealer, this digital table game follows traditional rules with added betting rounds and potential payout boosts.
Heads-Up Hold'em Features
This version of Texas Hold’em begins with two standard bets, Ante and Odds, and builds in three optional side bets. The pocket bonus rewards players for their two hole cards regardless of the final outcome. The bad beat pays out if the player has a Straight or better but loses to the dealer. And trips plus offers a payout based on the best five-card hand using all seven cards.
Heads-Up Hold'em Bonuses & Side Bets
This game enhances classic poker with three side bets: pocket bonus, bad beat, and trips plus.
The pocket bonus bet pays for hole card combos only with up to 30x available for pocket aces. The bad beat side bet pays out when you lose with a straight or better, with up to 500x your bet for the best hand. The trips plus bet pays out up to 100x based on your seven-card hand, where you must get a minimum of three of a kind.
Betting Options
To start a round, place equal ante and odds bets. Optional side bets can be placed as well. All at a minimum of 0.10 coins.
As the round progresses, players can check or raise during three key betting phases. Raise options are 3x, 2x, or 1x the Ante, depending on when you raise.
How to play Heads-Up Hold'em
The game uses a single 52-card deck and is played heads-up against the dealer. Used cards are shuffled back into the deck after each round. To get started, place an Ante and Odds bet of equal value. You can then optionally place side bets.
When ready, click deal to receive two hole cards and reveal five face-down community cards. Decide to raise or check to reveal the flop. After the flop, you may check or raise again. After the turn and river are revealed, you can raise or fold. Cards are revealed, and payouts are calculated based on the best hand.
If the dealer doesn’t qualify (less than a pair), the Ante bet is returned. If both hands tie, bets are returned. Winning hands receive 1:1 on the raise and Ante, and the Odds payout is based on hand strength.
