The game of Electronic Poker begins when the gambler puts credits (whether it is tokens, tickets or cash) into the video poker machine and presses the draw button. A hand of 5 cards will be electronically ‘distributed’ on the screen.

The Electronic Poker machine also has hold buttons, and bettors will need to now pick which cards to hold and which to discard.

After the player has selected which cards he wishes to retain, the player will then press ‘draw’, at which point any fresh cards are dealt if desired. The game is now completed, with the Electronic Poker machine analyzing the cards to see if it is the same as any of the winning hands listed in the payment schedule.

Typically, the minimum 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, 4 of a kinds, straight flushes and last but not least royal flushes. It goes without saying that the payout schedule can range from game to game, so that knowledgeable gamblers are agile enough to pick the most money-making ones every time.

As soon as the initial round has finished, the player can either choose to continue on in an attempt to increase their earnings, or press the ‘collect’ button to cash out any money that they may have won. Additionally, a few versions of the game give the bettor a chance to increase their wins, in which case a further hand is played. There are also variations between individual machines, with some decks of cards having wild cards and other differing characteristics to enhance playability.
