You can pull back Bet 1 after seeing your first three cards and Bet 2 after the first community card is revealed. Bet 3 always stays in play and cannot be pulled back.
What does the Bonus side bet pay out on?
The Bonus side bet is separate from your main bets and pays based on your final five-card poker hand. Payouts increase for stronger hands like flushes, full houses, and royal flushes.
