Electronic Poker is a favored game that is able to be gambled on in casinos across the world, or in your house on your PC, using a net connection. The rules are absolutely straightforward and involve the player trying to achieve the best assemblage of cards achievable in order to come away with money. On this account it is much the same as a normal game of poker, without the line of contact with any other players. Of course, techniques employed during a physical game of poker, like bluffing, will be useless here.
The game of Electronic Poker starts when the gambler puts credits (either tokens, credit slips or cash) into the video poker machine and presses the draw button. A hand of 5 cards will then be "handed out" on the screen.
The Electronic Poker machine also has hold buttons, and players should now choose which cards to hold and which to throw away. For the cards the enthusiast would like to keep, the ‘hold’ buttons need to be pressed so that they light up. The player can choose to keep any number of cards they want, from all to none.
After the enthusiast has selected which cards he would like to retain, they should press ‘draw’, which will mean that any new cards are handed out if desired. The hand is now completed, with the Electronic Poker machine analyzing the hand to see if it is the same as any of the winning hands printed on the payout schedule.
Generally, the minimum succeeding hand on an Electronic Poker machine is a pair of jacks with the prize money getting larger for each better hand. A common list of winning hands starts with jacks or better, moving 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 definitely goes without saying that the payment schedule can vary from machine to machine, so that experienced players are able to select the most beneficial machine each time.
Once 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 retrieve any credits that might been won. Further, a few versions of the game allow the player a chance to increase their winnings, in which case another hand is played. There are also variations between individual games, with some virtual decks having wild cards and other differing elements to enhance playability.
