Electronic Poker is a popular game that is able to be gambled on in casinos around the globe, or alternatively at your house on your PC, using a web account. The game rules are very simple and involve the player attempting to get the greatest mixture of cards achievable in order to come away with money. On this account it is much the same as a normal game of poker, apart from the interaction with other players. Of course, tactics employed during a real-life game of poker, like tricking, will be useless here.
The game of Video Poker starts when the bettor inserts credits (either tokens, credit slips or money) into the machine and pushes the play button. A hand of 5 cards will be electronically ‘distributed’ on the video screen.
The Video Poker machine also has buttons with ‘hold’ written on them, and gamblers will need to now choose which cards to hold and which to discard. For the cards the bettor would like to retain, the ‘hold’ buttons must be pressed so that they illuminate. The player can decide to keep any amount of cards they wish, from all to none.
After the gambler has decided on which cards he or she would like to retain, the player will then press ‘draw’, which will mean that any new cards will be dealt if desired. The game is now completed, with the Electronic Poker machine scanning the hand to see if it matches any of the winning hands listed in the pay out schedule.
Generally, the minimum succeeding hand on an Electronic Poker machine is a pair of jacks with the award money getting larger for each better hand. A common list of winning hands begins with jacks or better, and moves on to 2 pairs, three of a kinds, straights, flushes, full houses, four of a kinds, straight flushes and last but not least royal flushes. It is obvious that the payment schedule can change from machine to machine, so that knowledgeable enthusiasts are able to pick the most beneficial ones every instance.
After the first round has completed, the player can either decide to continue on and try to to maximize their earnings, or press the ‘collect’ button to retrieve any cash that might have been won. Additionally, some versions of the game allow the gambler a chance to increase their winnings, in which situation another round is played. There are also variations among individual games, with some decks of cards including wild cards and other varying characteristics to enhance playability.
