Red Dog

Two cards set the fence, one card jumps — or doesn't.

Ante up and two cards land face-up from a six-deck shoe: the gap between their ranks is the spread, and your wager says the third card falls strictly inside it. Consecutive ranks push automatically, a pair goes straight to the third card hunting a three-of-a-kind bonus, and after seeing the spread you may add one matching raise before the server reveals the verdict.

How a round works

Red Dog

  1. 1

    Ante tokens; two cards are dealt face-up and the spread between them is announced.

  2. 2

    Consecutive cards push and pairs auto-deal the third card; otherwise, decide whether to add the one optional matching raise.

  3. 3

    The third card is revealed server-side: strictly inside the spread pays the width-based printed odds, and the ledger settles the round.

The odds, honestly

The narrower the fence, the fatter the payout — and the worse the deal.

Bet / outcomeChancePays
Spread of 1 (one rank fits)≈ 7.7% per spread card5 : 1

Spread of 7 or morespread 7+ favours the call1 : 1

House edge

Played with discipline — raising only when the spread is 7 or wider, where the odds genuinely favour the call — Red Dog runs about a 2.8% house edge over six decks. A spread of 1 pays 5 : 1 precisely because only one rank in thirteen fits the gap; the table's whole lesson is that the raise button is only your friend past spread seven.

Fair play, by construction

  • Every outcome is drawn server-side and settled into the ledger — nothing is decided in your browser.
  • Rules and paytables live in reviewable contracts; the same math runs for every player.
  • Play tokens only: whatever the odds say, nothing here is ever worth money.
