Three Card Poker Rules and Hand Rankings on arwana
Three Card Poker is a card game where you compete against the dealer using only three cards instead of the traditional five-card poker hand. The game begins with you placing an ante bet — a small wager that starts the round. You then receive three cards face-down, and the dealer receives three cards (two face-down, one face-up). You decide whether to fold (lose your ante) or play (place an additional bet equal to your ante).
Hand rankings in Three Card Poker follow standard poker order, but adapted for three cards. A straight flush (three cards in sequence and same suit) ranks highest, followed by three of a kind, straight, flush, pair, and high card. The dealer must qualify with a queen-high hand or better to play against you. If the dealer does not qualify, you win even money on your ante and your play bet is returned.
If the dealer qualifies and your hand beats the dealer's hand, you win both your ante and play bets at even money. If your hand loses, both bets are forfeited. If you tie with the dealer, both bets push (return to you). We display the outcome clearly on your screen after the dealer reveals their cards, and your account balance updates immediately.
We also offer a bonus side bet called the Pair Plus. This bet wins if your three cards contain a pair or better, regardless of whether you beat the dealer. Pair Plus payouts vary by hand strength — a pair pays 1 to 1, a flush pays 3 to 1, a straight pays 4 to 1, three of a kind pays 30 to 1, and a straight flush pays 40 to 1. You can place Pair Plus alongside your ante and play bets.
Mobile Gameplay and Betting on arwana
Our Three Card Poker interface on mobile shows your three cards in the centre of the screen, the dealer's face-up card to the right, and betting controls at the bottom. We use large touch targets so you can tap buttons accurately even on smaller phones. Your account balance appears at the top and updates in real time after each hand settles.
To play a round, you first select your ante bet amount from a preset list. We offer stakes suitable for various budgets, from conservative to aggressive. Once you confirm your ante, we deal three cards to you and three to the dealer. You then decide to fold or play. If you fold, you lose your ante and the round ends. If you play, you place a play bet (typically equal to your ante, though some tables allow different amounts) and we reveal all cards.

Live Dealer Experience and Chat Features
Our Three Card Poker tables feature live dealers in professional studios with multiple camera angles. You see the dealer's face, their hands dealing cards, and the table layout in real time. We stream video at adaptive bitrate so your connection quality determines resolution — on strong Wi-Fi, you get high-definition video; on 4G, we reduce bitrate to maintain smooth playback without buffering.
You can interact with the dealer and other players via a text chat box on your screen. We moderate all chat to keep conversations respectful and game-focused. The dealer acknowledges your messages and may respond during natural breaks between hands. This social element makes live Three Card Poker feel more engaging than automated games, though you can disable chat notifications if you prefer to focus on gameplay.
Account Security and Session Management
Your arwana account is protected by encrypted login and optional two-factor authentication (2FA). When you log in on a new device, we send a verification code to your email or phone. You enter this code before gaining access, which prevents unauthorized login even if someone obtains your password. We recommend enabling 2FA for all accounts, especially if you play on public Wi-Fi.
We automatically log you out after subject to verification of inactivity for security. If you're playing on a shared device, you can force logout from all other sessions via Account Settings. Your password is encrypted during transmission and stored using cryptographic hashing — we cannot see your actual password and cannot recover it for you. If you forget your password, we send a reset link to your registered email address.
All Three Card Poker hands are logged to your account history with timestamps, bet amounts, and outcomes. You can review your session anytime by opening your transaction history. We also send push notifications after large wins or unusual account activity so you can spot unauthorized access immediately.
Deposits, Withdrawals, and Payment Methods
We support five major Indonesian payment platforms: DANA, e-wallet, mobile banking, local payment, and online payment. We also accept direct bank transfers from e-wallet, mobile banking, local payment, and online payment, plus e-wallet code payments. Deposits are instant — we credit your account within seconds of payment confirmation. Our minimum deposit is modest, so you can test our platform without large upfront commitment.
Withdrawals require a review window to prevent fraud. When you request a withdrawal, our system scans your account history and the requested amount. We typically approve withdrawals within 2-4 business hours during weekdays. On weekends or Indonesian holidays like Idul Adha or Imlek, processing may take longer. Once approved, we send your funds back to your original payment method.

KYC Verification and Account Setup
Before you withdraw funds from arwana, we require Know-Your-Customer (KYC) verification. This step confirms your identity and ensures your account is genuine. We ask for a government-issued ID (such as a passport or national identity card) and a selfie for matching. We process these documents within a standard review window — we will notify you by email or push notification once complete.
KYC protects both you and us. It prevents fraud, money laundering, and underage account creation. Your personal data is encrypted and stored separately from your game history and account balance. We do not sell or share your information with third parties outside our payment and compliance partners.
