Electronic Poker is a popular game that is able to be gambled on in casinos across the globe, or in your house on your home computer, through a web account. The game rules are absolutely simple and consist of the player attempting to achieve the greatest mixture of cards possible in order to come away with money. On this account it is much the same as a normal game of poker, minus the involvement with any other players. Of course, tactics employed during a real-life game of poker, like bluffing, will be irrelevant here.
The game of Electronic Poker begins when the bettor puts credits (whether it’s tokens, credit slips or money) into the machine and pushes the draw button. A hand of five cards will then be "dealt" on the video screen.
The Video Poker machine also has buttons with ‘hold’ written on them, and bettors will need to now choose which cards to keep and which to throw away. For the cards the player wishes to keep, the ‘hold’ buttons must be pressed so that they light up. The player can decide to keep any number of cards they wish, from all to none.
After the enthusiast has selected which cards he or she wishes to keep, they should press ‘draw’, which will mean that any new cards are handed out if desired. The round is now finished, with the Video Poker machine analyzing the hand to see if it matches any of the winning hands printed on the payout schedule.
Normally, the minimum succeeding hand on a Video Poker machine is a pair of jacks with the prize money increasing for each and every better hand. A list of common winning hands starts with jacks or better, moving on to two pairs, three of a kinds, straights, flushes, full houses, 4 of a kinds, straight flushes and last but not least royal flushes. It should be known that the pay out schedule can range from game to game, so that experienced bettors are able to pick the most money-making game each time.
Once the initial round has played out, the player can either choose to stay on and try to to maximize their earnings, or press the ‘collect’ button to retrieve any money that has been won. Additionally, some styles of the game allow the bettor an opportunity to double their wins, in which instance a further hand is played. There are also differences among specific games, with some virtual decks having wild cards and other varying characteristics to increase playability.
