Video Poker is a favored game that is able to be enjoyed in casinos around the world, or in your house on your computer, through a net account. The rules are very straightforward and involve the player attempting to get the best combination of cards achievable in order to come away with money. In this respect it is very similar as a classic game of poker, apart from the line of contact with other players. Of course, tactics employed during a real-life game of poker, such as tricking, will be irrelevant here.
The game of Electronic Poker starts when the gambler puts credits (either tokens, credit slips or money) into the machine and pushes the deal button. A hand of five cards will be electronically ‘dealt’ on the video screen.
The Video Poker game also has hold buttons, and players will need to now decide which cards to hold and which to throw away. For the cards the gambler would like to retain, the ‘hold’ buttons must be pressed so that they illuminate. The player can choose to keep any amount of cards they want, whether it is all or none.
After the player has chosen which cards he would like to keep, they should press ‘draw’, which will mean that any fresh cards will be needed they will be given out. The game is now completed, with the Video Poker machine scanning the cards to see if it matches any of the winning hands listed in the payment schedule.
Generally, the lowest winning hand on a Video Poker machine is a pair of jacks with the prize money increasing for each and every better hand. A common list of winning hands begins with jacks or better, moving on to two pairs, 3 of a kinds, straights, flushes, full houses, 4 of a kinds, straight flushes and finally royal flushes. It goes without saying that the pay out schedule can vary from machine to machine, so that experienced players are able to pick the most profitable ones each time.
As soon as the first round has played out, the player can either choose to remain on and try to to increase their winnings, or press the ‘collect’ button to cash out any cash that has been won. Additionally, several styles of the game give the gambler an opportunity to increase their profits, in which instance a further game is played. There are also differences among specific machines, with some virtual decks including wild cards and other differing aspects to increase playability.
