Electronic Poker is a favored game that can be gambled on in casinos throughout the world, or in your house on your computer, through a web connection. The regulations are very straightforward and involve the player attempting to get the best assemblage of cards possible in order to win money. On this account it’s very similar as a regular game of poker, minus the involvement with other players. Of course, tactics employed during a real-life game of poker, such as tricking, will be useless in Video Poker.

The game of Video Poker begins when the gambler puts credits (either tokens, tickets or cash) into the video poker machine and pushes the play button. A hand of 5 cards will be "distributed" on the video screen.

The Video Poker machine also has buttons with ‘hold’ printed on them, and gamblers will need to now pick which cards to keep and which to throw away. For the cards the gambler would like to retain, the ‘hold’ buttons should be pressed so that they light up. The player can decide to keep any number of cards they wish, from all to none.

After the player has chosen which cards he or she would like to retain, the player will then press ‘deal’, at which point any new cards will be given out if desired. The round is now finished, with the Video Poker machine scanning the hand to see if it matches any of the winning hands printed on the payout schedule.

Generally, the lowest winning hand on a Video 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, and moves on to two pairs, 3 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 skillful players are agile enough to select the most beneficial game each and every time.

As soon as the initial round has played out, the player can either decide to stay on and try to to maximize their earnings, or press the ‘collect’ button to cash out any money that they may have won. Further, a few styles of the game give the gambler an opportunity to increase their wins, in which situation another game is played. There are also variations between specific games, with some decks of cards including wild cards and other differing aspects to enhance playability.
