Electronic Poker is a favored game that is able to be bet on in casinos throughout the world, or in your house on your home computer, through a net connection. The regulations are very simple and consist of the player attempting to achieve the highest combination of cards achievable in order to acquire cash. On this account it is much the same as a classic game of poker, apart from the line of contact with competing players. Of course, methods employed during a real-life game of poker, such as tricking, will be irrelevant in Video Poker.

The game of Electronic Poker begins when the player puts credits (either tokens, credit slips or money) into the machine and presses the play button. A 5 card hand will then be "handed out" on the screen.

The Video Poker machine also has buttons with ‘hold’ printed on them, and gamblers will need to now choose which cards to hold 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 decide to keep any number of cards they want, from all to none.

After the player has selected which cards she would like to retain, they should press ‘draw’, which will mean that any fresh cards will be dealt if desired. The hand is now finished, with the Video Poker machine scanning the cards to see if it is the same as any of the winning hands shown on the payment schedule.

Normally, the lowest winning hand on a Video Poker machine is a pair of jacks with the prize money getting larger for each and every better hand. A common list of winning hands starts with jacks or better, moving on to two pairs, three of a kinds, straights, flushes, full houses, four of a kinds, straight flushes and finally royal flushes. It goes without saying that the payment schedule can change from game to game, so that knowledgeable players are agile enough to select the most beneficial game every time.

As soon as the first round has finished, the player can either choose to remain on and try to to maximize their winnings, or they can press the ‘collect’ button to retrieve any money that they may have won. Additionally, a few versions of the game allow the gambler a chance to increase their wins, in which case a further round is played. There are also variations among individual machines, with some virtual decks having wild cards and other differing aspects to enhance playability.
