This bet enhances gameplay by adding an extra layer of excitement and potential reward, as players can enjoy the thrill of winning from both the main game and the side bet. It appeals to those who enjoy the chance of hitting specific card combinations, thereby diversifying the betting experience and increasing player engagement at the table.
