Video Poker is a popular game that can be played in casinos across the globe, or in your house on your computer, through a net account. The rules are absolutely simple and consist of the player attempting to achieve the best mixture of cards achievable in order to acquire cash. On this account it is very similar as a normal game of poker, minus the interaction with any other players. Of course, tactics employed during a real-life game of poker, like bluffing, will be irrelevant here.
The game of Video Poker starts when the player inserts credits (either tokens, tickets or cash) into the machine and presses the draw button. A 5 card hand will be "handed out" on the video screen.
The Electronic Poker game also has hold buttons, and players should now choose which cards to keep and which to throw away. For the cards the gambler wishes to retain, the ‘hold’ buttons must be pressed so that they illuminate. The player can choose to keep any number of cards they wish, whether it is all or none.
After the player has chosen which cards she wishes to keep, they should press ‘draw’, at which point any new cards are needed they will be handed out. The game is now completed, with the Video Poker machine analyzing the cards to see if it matches any of the winning hands printed on the payment schedule.
Normally, the lowest winning hand on an Electronic Poker machine is a pair of jacks with the prize money increasing for each and every better hand. A common list of winning hands starts with jacks or better, and moves on to 2 pairs, three of a kinds, straights, flushes, full houses, four of a kinds, straight flushes and last but not least royal flushes. It is obvious that the payment schedule can change from game to game, so that discerning bettors are agile enough to select the most beneficial machine each and every instance.
As soon as the initial round has finished, the player can either choose to continue on in an attempt to maximize their earnings, or they can press the ‘collect’ button to cash out any cash that might have been won. Further, several styles of the game give the player a chance to double their wins, in which situation another round is played. There are also variations among specific machines, with some virtual decks having wild cards and other differing characteristics to enhance playability.
