[edit] Opening comment
"...clicking on the raise button." I don't think this game is only played on computers - I seem to recall a Thurber story, "The State of Bontana", that referred to it.
The original version said it was "courtesy of" a site which is currently under revision. Could be a copyvio.

if the first two cards dealt are a pair, they are a push. How does the third card pay 11-1? Bit vague....
[edit] No.
I have been playing Red Dog for a long time, and this is not Red Dog. Maybe this is the British version or something. In the America version, each person is dealt 3 cards. Everyone raises their cards and on the count of 3, the people who want to get out of the hand drop their cards. Whoever has the better hand of the remaining people wins. If only one person keeps their cards, they have to beat the deck. Then the game is over. And there is betting blah blah. If you lose you have to match the pot. That is Red Dog.
This is typical of card games, I have played two very different games both called blackjack but wouldn't say someone is wrong just because they call a game something different. --90.199.226.239 (talk) 02:57, 27 January 2010 (UTC)
