The rules of Lunar Poker are fairly simple and should come as familiar to those who have played different variations of 5 Card Draw Poker. The game begins with players placing their mandatory antes and Super wagers, which grants players access to the dealing. Then, the dealer deals each participating player five cards including themselves, with the dealer's final card face up. At this time, players have the additional option of place a Super bet. A Super bet is collected anytime a player's initial hand contains one of the eight super combinations possible. Next, a player has the option to play, fold, or draw by purchasing a 6th card or exchanging 2-5 cards for a price equal to the initial ante. Once a player who has drawn new cards evaluates their new hand they continue playing by placing a bet that is twice their original ante. Before a dealer goes head to head against the players' hands, any player who placed a Super bet on the dealer's hand will be paid out if the dealer does indeed have a Super combination. For a winning player to collect both the bets and antes the dealer must qualify the hand by holding a combination Ace-King or better; otherwise the bets are a push and the winning player collects only the antes.
