Apologies if it's already posted and I didn't see it.

Wizard's Three Card Poker page spells out the odds for the Millionaire Maker bonus offered by Caesars. These are the odds for games that deal with six cards.

My understanding is that the MM bonus is offered on UTH as well. How does having seven cards to work with change the odds and the house advantage?

They have an additional 4 cards set aside and are used with your hole cards.

This is sort of true. The MM bonus itself (the 6 card diamond Royal) is no longer on any CET game, to my knowledge. But any 6 card Royal pays 100K (which is what the non-diamonds paid). They have spread the 6 card to available on most all their carnival games (those distributed thru Bally, anyway), including UTH, Mississippi Stud, LIR, some others. That also makes the progressive bigger since it runs across more tables (if they're doing it as a progressive - some do, some don't).

They all use the player's cards as part of the 6 card hand, and the bet is a flat $5. Each game has its own way to get to 6 cards; for UTH, it's 4 cards held to the end, for MS Stud it's 3 cards, for LIR it's 3 cards, for Crazy 4 it's 2 cards. I think only the 3CP uses the dealer's cards as part of the bet.
If the House lost every hand, they wouldn't deal the game.

Aha, so it's not actually making a 6-card diamond royal with the community cards, but with the left over soda cards at the end. Gotcha.
