  3. Matching Criteria:
    • Full Match: All three player cards match the dealer’s cards in any order.
    • Straight Match: Player’s cards form a numerical sequence (e.g., 4-5-6), regardless of matching the dealer’s cards.
  4. Payouts:
    • Full Match: Wins the jackpot.
    • Straight Match: Wins a predetermined prize (e.g., 5:1 payout).
