Video Poker is a popular game that is able to be enjoyed in casinos across the world, or in your house on your personal computer, through a web account. The regulations are very straightforward and consist of the player attempting to get the best assemblage of cards possible in order to come away with cash. On this account it is much the same as a classic game of poker, without the interaction with competing players. Of course, techniques employed during a real-life game of poker, like tricking, will be useless here.

The game of Video Poker starts when the enthusiast inserts credits (either tokens, credit slips or money) into the video poker machine and pushes the play button. A hand of five cards will then be "dealt" on the screen.

The Electronic Poker game also has buttons with ‘hold’ printed on them, and gamblers will need to now decide which cards to keep and which to throw away. For the cards the player would like to retain, the ‘hold’ buttons must be pressed so that they illuminate. The player can decide to keep any number of cards they wish, whether it’s all or none.

After the bettor has decided on which cards he or she would like to retain, the player will then press ‘deal’, which will mean that any new cards are given out if desired. The round is now completed, with the Video Poker machine scanning the hand to see if it matches any of the winning hands shown on the pay out schedule.

Generally, the lowest winning hand on an Electronic 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 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 should be known that the payout schedule can change from game to game, so that discerning gamblers are agile enough to pick the most money-making ones each and every time.

As soon as the initial round has completed, the player can either choose to remain on in an attempt to maximize their earnings, or press the ‘collect’ button to cash out any money that they may have won. Additionally, several versions of the game give the player a chance to increase their profits, in which case another game is played. There are also variations between individual machines, with some decks of cards having wild cards and other differing aspects to enhance playability.
