Default Casino Holdem on Titan

Oh boy, am I in trouble. I was checking out the other "Games" at Titan (ie. BJ, Carribean Poker, etc.) and I discovered Casino Holdem.

It's played like Carribean Poker, you make a bet (I played $0.10), you see your pocket cards AND the flop. If you have garbage, then you fold and lose $0.10. If you think you can beat the dealer, then it costs $0.20 more to call. If you beat the dealer, then you win at least your original $0.10 bet. The dealer must have a hand better than a pair of 4's for you to collect on your $0.20 bet.

Here's an example, you bet $1 and get dealt Ah9c, and the flop is 4-9-Q rainbow and you call for an extra $2. The Turn is a 2, and River is a 3. So the board is 2-3-4-9-Q.
If the dealer has A-K, you will get your $3 back, plus $1 profit.
If the dealer has 4-6, you will get your $3 back, plus $3 profit.
If the dealer has Q-J, you lose your $3.

I like it ... woe is me. I know Titan will eventually stack the cards against me and kick my butt. It is fun to flop 2 pair, a set, flush draw, outside straight draw, etc. and win. I'm up a couple of bucks.
