Whichever you decide to do in let it ride poker play continues with one of the two face down cards being turned over so that you can now see four cards and again you have the chance to withdraw a €5 bet or let it ride. Eventually the fifth card is turned and the outcome decided. The better your hand in let it ride poker the better the odds at which you are paid.
