Video Poker is a beloved game that usually will be enjoyed in casinos throughout the world, or in your house on your personal computer, using an Internet connection. The rules are absolutely straightforward and consist of the player attempting to achieve the greatest combination of cards possible in order to win money. In this respect it is much the same as a normal game of poker, apart from the involvement with any other players. Of course, methods employed during a physical game of poker, such as bluffing, will be irrelevant in Video Poker.

The game of Electronic Poker starts when the gambler inserts credits (whether it’s tokens, tickets or money) into the video poker machine and pushes the play button. A five card hand will then be "dealt" on the video screen.

The Video Poker game also has hold buttons, and gamblers will need to now decide which cards to hold and which to discard. For the cards the enthusiast wishes to keep, the ‘hold’ buttons must be pressed so that they light up. The player can decide to keep any amount of cards they want, whether it is all or none.

After the player has chosen which cards he wishes to retain, the player will then press ‘draw’, at which point any fresh cards are needed they will be handed out. The game is now finished, with the Electronic Poker machine scanning the cards to see if it is the same as any of the winning hands shown on the payout schedule.

Normally, the lowest succeeding 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 2 pairs, three 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 vary from machine to machine, so that discerning enthusiasts are agile enough to choose the most profitable machine every time.

As soon as the first round has played out, the player can either decide to remain on in an attempt to maximize their winnings, or press the ‘collect’ button to retrieve any credits that they may have won. Further, a few versions of the game allow the enthusiast an opportunity to double their profits, in which case another game is played. There are also variations among specific machines, with some decks of cards including wild cards and other varying aspects to increase playability.
