RULES
Video Poker rules are very simple and straightforward. Just as in the
table version of poker, a player is dealt a hand of five cards taken
from a randomly shuffled deck of cards.
In
an internet casino, video poker is played in much the same way as in
a Las Vegas casino. First, you decide what your bet will be. You should
find the minimum and maximum limit on your screen off to the left or
right of the machine. Then click on the button for dealing the cards.
Some machines will indicate this button with the word, “DRAW”, whereas
others will use “DEAL.”
Some
video poker machines will emit a particular sound just to let you know
that a classifying hand has been dealt. This, however, does not imply
that you must accept the hand. As in the table version of draw poker,
you decide with how many and with which of your originally dealt cards
you are to stay. You select the cards that interest you by clicking
on their corresponding buttons, and then once again you hit the “DEAL”
or “DRAW” button to receive their substitutions.

PAYOUTS
Video poker games pay out according to the table or chart located on
the gaming screen. Everything depends on the final hand. Your winnings
will be added to your account balance, which should also be displayed
on the screen.
