After you have seen your hand and the dealer’s first card, you need to either make a call wager or accede. The call bet’s amount is equal to your beginning ante, which means that the risks will have increased two fold. Surrendering means that your ante goes directly to the house. After the wager comes the conclusion. If the casino doesn’t have ace/king or greater, your wager is given back, including an amount in accordance with the ante.
