| The objective of War is for a player to have a higher card than the dealer. If the players card is higher, then the player wins 2 times the amount wagered. In the case where the value of the players card and the dealers card is the same, the player can either fold or choose to go to war by raising the bet. If the player folds, the amount wagered is automatically lost.
If the player raises, an amount equal to the original wager is added to the bet and both the dealer and player receive three cards face down, and another card face-up. The highest face-up card wins. In the case of a win, player receives a win 2 times the amount wagered plus the raise amount.
For example, a players wager (ante) is $5 and the player raises $5 and the players card is higher than the dealer, the player would win two times the amount of the wager (ante) and will win the raise amount, which is a total $15. However, if the card is lower than that of the dealer, the player loses the wager (in the case above, the player would lose $10, both the wager (ante) and the raise). If after a war the player and the dealer have the same card value, then the player wins
