Short Description and Game Rules
Video poker is also known as draw poker. The dealer uses
a 52-card deck, which is played fresh after each hand. The
object of the game varies with each machine. For specific
details regarding each winning combination, please check
the tables below. In order to play Video Poker
After betting, click on the "Deal Draw" button,
whereupon you will be dealt one five-card Poker hand. After
the first draw, click on the "Hold" button to
save any cards that you wish to keep.
Click on "Deal Draw" again,thereby replacing
the cards that you have not chosen to hold with new ones.
Your cards are then compared to the table of winning combinations
(see below). If the value of your hand is lower than the
minimum winning combination, you lose your bet. If the value
of your hand is higher, you win (see "Winning Combinations"
below).
