Playtech has finally launched the Live Dealer 3 Card Brag game we saw glimpses of at ICE 2017.
If you’re gagging to get playing, then you’ll find it at Betfred, Casino.com.
It’s been a while coming, and I’m pleased we now have an alternative to Live 3 Card Poker from Evolution.
Don’t get me wrong. It’s not because I don’t like 3 card poker. I love it.
It’s because I believe there should always be choices. Playtech Live 3 Card Brag delivers that.
It’s simple. Licensing. The rights of 3 card poker are owned by Scientific Games, and Evolution Gaming has exclusive rights to the live version of the game.
3 Card Brag is a game that dates back to the 16th Century, so it has plenty of history. It’s known very well in the UK. I remember playing it when I was a child.
Live Dealer 3 Card Brag is played in a very similar way to Live 3 Card Poker. You have to get a better 3 card hand than the dealer.
The only difference is the ranking of the hands.
The highest hand possible in 3 card brag is a Prial (three of a kind). A Prial of 3’s is the best hand you can get, although there is no ranking of these hands in the Live version.
The game is presented in a one-to-many format and is played with one pack of 52 Playing Cards.
There’s one player hand that an unlimited number of people can bet on.
You’ll always be able to play. There are no seating issues like you get in Blackjack.
As new, places to play the new game are difficult to find.
I’ve been playing at Casino.com, but you’ll also find the game at Betfred.
