Official Red Dog Rules!

Red Dog, easy to remember the name and easy to remember the rules. The trick here is to try to predict if the value of a randomly selected card will be between your two cards. In Red Dog, number cards count as their face value. Picture cards count as a continuation. A Jack is an 11, a Queen is 12, a King is 13 and an Ace is 14. The suit of the card is irrelevant.

Two cards are drawn. If the cards are consecutive, it is a push so your wager is returned to you and the round is over. If the cards are equal, a third card is drawn. If it matches the first two cards, you win 11 to 1; otherwise it is a push.

If the two cards are neither consecutive nor equal, the spread is established. The spread is the number of card values between the two cards. For example 2 and 4 have a spread of 1; 6 and a Queen have a spread of 5.

Now you have the option to double your bet or to call (continue without raising).

A third card is drawn. If it is between the two cards, you win according to the payout table displayed on the Red Dog card table. If it matches one of the two cards or is outside the spread, you lose.
