There's "3-Way Action" at the Pioneer with an all new table game on the casino floor that allows players to get in on three different games at once. The game begins with a section called "Combat" in which each player is dealt one card with the high card winning. The second phase of the game is blackjack with players using the same first card from the "Combat" phase as the first card in a blackjack hand. The final phase of the game is poker in which players keep the first two cards dealt in the previous phases and receive five additional cards from the dealer for a 7-card stud hand. Players don't play against each other, but rather against the dealer in all phases of play. Thus, player table talk and advice giving is allowed. For further details on "3-Way Action" or to watch it being played, stop by the main pit area at the Pioneer.
