After each player who has placed an Ante Wager has either placed a second Raise Wager on the designated area of the layout or forfeited, the dealer shall collect all forfeited wagers and associated cards, except for the cards of those players who placed an optional Pocket Bonus, Board Bonus, Lo Ball or All-Six Bonus Wager, and place the cards in the discard rack.
