Video Poker is a popular game that is able to be bet on in casinos all over the globe, or in your house on your computer, using an Internet account. The regulations are absolutely straightforward and consist of the player attempting to achieve the best combination of cards possible in order to win money. On this account it’s much the same as a normal game of poker, apart from the line of contact with any other players. Of course, methods employed during a real-life game of poker, like tricking, will be useless here.

The game of Video Poker begins when the bettor puts credits (whether it’s tokens, tickets or cash) into the video poker machine and pushes the draw button. A 5 card hand will be "given out" on the screen.

The Electronic Poker game also has hold buttons, and gamblers will need to now pick which cards to keep and which to throw away. For the cards the player wishes to keep, the ‘hold’ buttons should be pressed so that they light up. The player can choose to keep any number of cards they want, whether it is all or none.

After the gambler has chosen which cards she wishes to retain, the player will then press ‘deal’, at which point any fresh cards will be needed they will be handed out. The hand is now completed, with the Video Poker machine analyzing the cards to see if it is the same as any of the winning hands shown on the pay out schedule.

Normally, the lowest succeeding hand on an Electronic 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, 3 of a kinds, straights, flushes, full houses, four of a kinds, straight flushes and last but not least royal flushes. It goes without saying that the payout schedule can change from game to game, so that discerning players are able to select the most money-making ones each and every time.

After the initial round has finished, the player can either decide to continue on and try to to increase their earnings, or they can press the ‘collect’ button to retrieve any money that has been won. Further, some styles of the game give the gambler a chance to increase their wins, in which case another hand is played. There are also differences between specific games, with some decks of cards including wild cards and other differing elements to enhance playability.
