How to Play Video Poker

After the enthusiast has selected which cards he or she would like to keep, the player will then press ‘draw’, at which point any fresh cards are handed out if desired. The round is now finished, with the Video Poker machine scanning the hand to see if it matches any of the winning hands shown on the pay out schedule.

A common list of winning hands begins with jacks or better, moving on to two pairs, three of a kinds, straights, flushes, full houses, 4 of a kinds, straight flushes and finally royal flushes. It is obvious that the payout schedule can range from machine to machine, so that knowledgeable players are able to select the most profitable game every instance.
As soon as the initial round has completed, the player can either decide to continue on and try to to increase their winnings, or they can press the ‘collect’ button to retrieve any credits that they may have won. Additionally, a few styles of the game allow the enthusiast an opportunity to increase their profits, in which case a further game is played. There are also variations between individual machines, with some virtual decks having wild cards and other varying aspects to increase playability.
