Electronic Poker is a popular game that usually will be bet on in casinos throughout the world, or in your house on your PC, using a web connection. The regulations are absolutely simple and consist of the player attempting to achieve the highest combination of cards possible in order to come away with money. On this account it is much the same as a regular game of poker, without the interaction with any other players. Of course, methods employed during a real-life game of poker, like tricking, will be useless here.
The game of Electronic Poker starts when the bettor inserts credits (either tokens, credit slips or money) into the machine and presses the play button. A hand of five cards will then be "dealt" on the screen.
The Video Poker game also has buttons with ‘hold’ written on them, and enthusiasts should now choose which cards to hold and which to throw away. For the cards the player would like to keep, the ‘hold’ buttons must be pressed so that they light up. The player can choose to keep any amount of cards they want, whether it’s all or none.
After the enthusiast has decided on which cards he or she wishes to retain, they should press ‘draw’, at which point any new cards are dealt if desired. 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 listed in the payout schedule.
Normally, the minimum winning hand on a Video Poker machine is a pair of jacks with the award money growing for each better hand. A common list of winning hands begins with jacks or better, moving 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 goes without saying that the payout schedule can change from game to game, so that knowledgeable gamblers are agile enough to choose the most profitable game every time.
After the initial round has finished, the player can either choose to continue on in an attempt to maximize their earnings, or they can press the ‘collect’ button to cash out any money that has been won. Further, a few styles of the game give the gambler an opportunity to double their profits, in which situation a further hand is played. There are also differences among individual games, with some virtual decks including wild cards and other varying elements to increase playability.
