The Proper Way to Enjoy Electronic Poker
December 10th, 2015 by Dayanara

Video Poker is a beloved game that usually will be played in casinos around the world, or in your house on your home computer, through an Internet account. The rules are absolutely simple and involve the player attempting to achieve the highest mixture of cards possible in order to win cash. On this account it is very similar as a normal game of poker, without the line of contact with any other players. Of course, methods employed during a physical game of poker, like bluffing, will be useless here.

The game of Electronic Poker starts when the bettor inserts credits (whether it is tokens, credit slips or money) into the machine and presses the play button. A five card hand will be electronically ‘distributed’ on the video screen.

The Electronic Poker machine also has buttons with ‘hold’ written on them, and bettors should now pick which cards to hold and which to throw away. For the cards the bettor would like to keep, the ‘hold’ buttons need to 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 wishes to keep, the player will then press ‘deal’, at which point any fresh cards will be needed they will be dealt. The round is now finished, with the Video Poker machine scanning the hand to see if it is the same as any of the winning hands printed on the pay out schedule.

Typically, the lowest winning hand on a Video Poker machine is a pair of jacks with the award money growing for each better hand. A list of common winning hands starts with jacks or better, moving on to 2 pairs, three of a kinds, straights, flushes, full houses, 4 of a kinds, straight flushes and finally royal flushes. It is obvious that the pay out schedule can vary from machine to machine, so that skillful enthusiasts are agile enough to select the most beneficial ones every instance.

Once the initial round has played out, the player can either choose to continue on in an attempt to maximize their winnings, or press the ‘collect’ button to cash out any money that has been won. Further, some styles of the game allow the player an opportunity to increase their profits, in which instance a further round is played. There are also variations between individual games, with some decks of cards having wild cards and other differing characteristics to increase playability.
