Poker review
Ultimate Texas Hold'em is Evolution's live version of the Scientific Games table game: you raise up to 4x preflop, 2x after the flop or 1x at the river against the dealer.
Evolution signed an exclusive deal for it in January 2016. The dealer qualifies with a pair; the Blind pays by its own table.
