Electronic Poker is a popular game that is able to be gambled on in casinos throughout the globe, or in your house on your PC, using an Internet account. The game rules are absolutely simple and consist of the player trying to get the greatest mixture of cards achievable in order to win money. On this account it’s much the same as a regular game of poker, without the interaction with any other players. Of course, tactics employed during a physical game of poker, like bluffing, will be useless in Video Poker.

The game of Electronic Poker begins when the bettor puts credits (whether it’s tokens, tickets or money) into the video poker machine and pushes the deal button. A 5 card hand will be electronically ‘given out’ on the video screen.

The Electronic Poker game also has buttons with ‘hold’ written on them, and players should now pick which cards to hold and which to throw away. For the cards the bettor would like to keep, the ‘hold’ buttons should be pressed so that they light up. The player can choose to keep any amount of cards they wish, from all to none.

After the player has chosen which cards he would like to keep, the player will then press ‘draw’, which will mean that any fresh cards will be handed out if desired. The round is now finished, with the Video Poker machine scanning the cards to see if it is the same as any of the winning hands printed on the pay out schedule.

Generally, the lowest winning hand on a Video Poker machine is a pair of jacks with the prize money growing for each and every better hand. A list of common 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 pay out schedule can change from game to game, so that experienced bettors are able to select the most profitable machine every time.

As soon as the initial round has completed, the player can either choose to continue on in an attempt to maximize their winnings, or press the ‘collect’ button to cash out any cash that they may have won. Additionally, a few versions of the game allow the bettor a chance to double their winnings, in which instance a further round is played. There are also differences between individual games, with some virtual decks having wild cards and other varying characteristics to increase playability.
