How to Play Online
Video Poker
Online Video Poker simulates the basic game of
draw poker. First, you are dealt five cards and
are allowed to discard any or all of them and
draw new cards in order to try and improve your
hand.
The big
difference between online video poker and a
typical game of poker is that you are not
playing against anyone. All you are trying to
do is to get the best possible hand. There is
no betting or raising a pot. The higher that
your hand is, the more money that you win.
You’ll find the payout for the hand that you hit
displayed on the online video poker machine that
you are playing. You will automatically be
credited with your winnings.
Here is a step
by step breakdown that will show you how easy it
is to play Online Video Poker.
- Select the
version of Video Poker that you want to play
– we suggest beginning with
"Jacks or Better".
- Next
select how much money you want each credit
that you bet to be.
- Next
select the number of credits that you want
to play for. We strongly recommend that you
play the maximum number of credits.
- When you
select Bet Max the cards will automatically
be dealt. If you selected an amount other
than Bet Max then click "Deal".
- Next click
on the cards that you would like to hold
onto.

have a winning hand, you will be paid the
amount listed on the payout table which is
right on the online video poker game that
