Poker Client - Understanding Deal Choice
Deal Choice is a feature which allows the Underdog to slightly increase their odds of winning when they are in a losing all-in situation and makes the game more exciting.
Understanding how Deal Choice works
During an all-in situation, the Underdog will be able to select one of the following: Run It Once, Run It Twice, Run It Three Times.
-
Run It Twice (RIT) or Run It Three Times (RITT) allows players to have the remaining board cards dealt two or three times when two players both go all-in.
-
The amount in the pot is also split into two or three different amounts to be played out to different boards.
-
When an Underdog chooses to Run It Twice or Run It Three Times, if the Favorite decides to accept All-In Insurance or rejects the Underdog's Deal Choice, then the board will only run once like a normal game.
Criteria for Deal Choice to be Offered
- It must be an all-in showdown
- Only two players remain
- The equity held by the favourite must be 60% or higher
