Electronic Poker is a favored game that is able to be played in casinos across the globe, or in your house on your PC, using an Internet account. The game rules are absolutely simple and involve the player attempting to achieve the greatest mixture of cards possible in order to win money. On this account it is very similar as a regular game of poker, minus the involvement with competing players. Of course, methods used in a physical game of poker, such as bluffing, will be useless in Video Poker.
The game of Video Poker begins when the player puts credits (whether it’s tokens, credit slips or cash) into the video poker machine and presses the play button. A hand of 5 cards will be "distributed" on the screen.
The Video Poker game also has buttons with ‘hold’ written on them, and enthusiasts should now pick which cards to keep and which to discard. For the cards the enthusiast wishes to keep, the ‘hold’ buttons should be pressed so that they illuminate. The player can decide to keep any number of cards they wish, from all to none.
After the bettor has selected which cards she wishes to keep, the player will then press ‘draw’, at which point any new cards are handed out if desired. The hand is now finished, with the Video Poker machine analyzing the cards to see if it matches any of the winning hands listed in the payment schedule.
Typically, the lowest succeeding hand on an Electronic Poker machine is a pair of jacks with the prize money getting larger for each better hand. A list of common winning hands starts with jacks or better, and moves on to two pairs, three of a kinds, straights, flushes, full houses, 4 of a kinds, straight flushes and finally royal flushes. It should be known that the payment schedule can vary from machine to machine, so that experienced bettors are able to pick the most money-making ones every time.
As soon as the first round has finished, the player can either choose to stay on in an attempt to maximize their earnings, or press the ‘collect’ button to retrieve any cash that might have been won. Further, a few styles of the game allow the gambler an opportunity to double their wins, in which case another game is played. There are also differences between individual machines, with some decks of cards having wild cards and other varying characteristics to increase playability.
