Electronic Poker is a favored game that can be gambled on in casinos throughout the world, or alternatively at your house on your computer, through an Internet account. The regulations are very straightforward and involve the player attempting to achieve the greatest combination of cards possible in order to come away with money. On this account it is very similar as a regular game of poker, without the line of contact with other players. Of course, techniques employed during a real-life game of poker, such as bluffing, will be useless in Video Poker.

The game of Video Poker begins when the player inserts credits (whether it is tokens, tickets or money) into the video poker machine and pushes the draw button. A hand of five cards will then be "handed out" on the video screen.

The Video Poker game also has buttons with ‘hold’ written on them, and players should now pick which cards to keep and which to throw away. For the cards the enthusiast wishes to retain, the ‘hold’ buttons must be pressed so that they illuminate. The player can decide to keep any amount of cards they want, from all to none.

After the bettor has selected which cards he or she wishes to retain, the player will then press ‘deal’, at which point any fresh cards are given out if desired. The hand is now finished, with the Electronic Poker machine analyzing the hand to see if it is the same as any of the winning hands shown on the payment schedule.

Typically, the minimum winning hand on an Electronic Poker machine is a pair of jacks with the prize money getting larger for each 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 should be known that the payment schedule can vary from machine to machine, so that discerning enthusiasts are able to choose the most profitable game each and every time.

After the initial round has finished, the player can either decide to remain on in an attempt to increase their winnings, or press the ‘collect’ button to retrieve any money that might have been won. Further, a few styles of the game allow the bettor a chance to double their profits, in which case another round is played. There are also variations among individual machines, with some virtual decks including wild cards and other differing characteristics to enhance playability.
