Main goal of Video Poker is to possess any of the five-card winning combinations listed on the payout schedule of each game.

You will be dealing with five cards at a time. To try to improve your hand, you can discard or hold any of your five cards. New cards are dealt to replace the discarded ones. If the rank of your final five-card hand is listed on the payout schedule shown on each game, you win!

After receiving your initial five cards, you have a one-time option to draw additional cards to replace cards you discard.

Winning hands are paid according to the payout schedule displayed on each game. To get paid, you must have the minimum hand needed for each game as shown below.

1. Jacks or Better Pair of Jacks
2. Joker Poker Pair of Kings
3. Deuces Wild Three of a Kind
4. All American Pair of Jacks

The next step is to place your bet. You can bet from one to five coins in Video Poker. Left-click the Bet One button to place a bet in increments of one credit at a time or, to bet five coins, left-click the Bet Max button.
