I recently played 3-card poker and with the 6-card bonus the dealer had 10,Q,A of spades and I had 9,J,K of spades - the casino in Ontario paid me only the royal flush which was 1000:1 but I'm contesting that a second payout of a straight flush also should be paid out - the straight flush hand being 9,10,J,Q,K of spades which pays 200:1 or another $2000 of the minimum bet of $10. Am I correct that that there are 2 separate payouts with these 6 cards?

According to Casino Rama in Ontario the hand that I was dealt 9,J,K of spades combined with dealer's hand of 10,Q,A also of spades was rewarded the royal flush of 1000:1. The other poker hand of 9,10,J,Q,K with a payout of 200:1 was not a valid payout hand because the casino only pays out the highest hand. Can someone verify this? Thanks.

Paying only the highest win per wagered item (hand, payline, ticket, etc.) is industry standard among all types of games.

Otherwise, the hand in question could be considered a Royal Flush and a Straight Flush and a Flush and a Straight, and trying to collect the payoff for all four types would be rather silly.

The "6 Card Bonus" is a side bet based on the highest five-card poker hand that can be composed out of the player's and dealer's three cards.

My condolences that you weren't playing at a Caesars Entertainment property.

No chance. Only the highest possible payout per hand ever gets paid on any table game. If your example were the case, why would you not also get paid for the straight and the flush since you also have those? A Royal is the correct payment.
