Electronic Poker is a beloved game that usually will be enjoyed in casinos all over the globe, or alternatively at your house on your personal computer, through a net connection. The rules are absolutely straightforward and consist of the player trying to achieve the best combination of cards possible in order to come away with money. On this account it’s very similar as a regular game of poker, without the interaction with competing players. Of course, tactics employed during a physical game of poker, such as bluffing, will be irrelevant in Video Poker.

The game of Video Poker begins when the bettor inserts credits (whether it is tokens, tickets or cash) into the video poker machine and presses the draw button. A 5 card hand will be "dealt" on the video screen.

The Electronic Poker machine also has buttons with ‘hold’ printed on them, and gamblers will need to now pick which cards to keep and which to throw away. For the cards the enthusiast wishes to retain, the ‘hold’ buttons should be pressed so that they illuminate. The player can choose to keep any number of cards they want, whether it’s all or none.

After the enthusiast has selected which cards he or she wishes to keep, they should press ‘deal’, at which point any new cards are needed they will be handed out. The hand is now finished, with the Electronic Poker machine scanning the cards to see if it is the same as any of the winning hands printed on the pay out schedule.

Normally, the lowest winning hand on a Video Poker machine is a pair of jacks with the prize money growing for each better hand. A common list of winning hands starts with jacks or better, and moves on to two pairs, three of a kinds, straights, flushes, full houses, four of a kinds, straight flushes and finally royal flushes. It definitely goes without saying that the pay out schedule can change from machine to machine, so that experienced bettors are able to select the most money-making ones each time.

Once the initial round has played out, the player can either decide to continue on and try to to maximize their winnings, or press the ‘collect’ button to cash out any credits that they may have won. Additionally, several styles of the game allow the gambler an opportunity to double their profits, in which case a further round is played. There are also variations between individual games, with some virtual decks including wild cards and other varying aspects to enhance playability.
