Electronic Poker is a beloved game that can be wagered on in casinos around the globe, or alternatively at home on your computer, using an Internet account. The game rules are very simple and involve the player trying to get the best mixture of cards achievable in order to come away with money. In this respect it is very similar as a normal game of poker, without the interaction with other players. Of course, methods employed during a physical game of poker, such as bluffing, will be irrelevant in Video Poker.
The game of Video Poker starts when the bettor inserts credits (whether it is tokens, tickets or money) into the video poker machine and pushes the play button. A hand of 5 cards will be "given out" on the video screen.
The Video Poker machine also has buttons with ‘hold’ printed on them, and players will need to now choose which cards to hold and which to throw away. For the cards the bettor would like to retain, the ‘hold’ buttons should be pressed so that they light up. The player can choose to keep any number of cards they wish, from all to none.
After the bettor has decided on which cards he or she would like to keep, the player will then press ‘draw’, which will mean that any new cards will be handed out if desired. The game is now finished, with the Video Poker machine scanning the cards to see if it matches any of the winning hands shown on the payment schedule.
Normally, the minimum succeeding hand on an Electronic Poker machine is a pair of jacks with the prize money increasing for each better hand. A list of common winning hands begins with jacks or better, and moves on to two pairs, 3 of a kinds, straights, flushes, full houses, four of a kinds, straight flushes and last but not least royal flushes. It goes without saying that the payout schedule can vary from machine to machine, so that experienced bettors are able to pick the most money-making game each and every time.
Once the initial round has played out, the player can either choose to continue on and try to to increase their earnings, or press the ‘collect’ button to cash out any money that might have been won. Further, some styles of the game give the bettor an opportunity to increase their profits, in which situation a further round is played. There are also variations among individual games, with some decks of cards having wild cards and other varying characteristics to enhance playability.
