How to Play Online Video Poker
Changing Bets
Video poker bets are determined by the value / denomination of the coin being played. Use the – and + symbols on either side of the Coin Value to determine how much you would like each coin to be worth. You can select 25¢, 50¢, $1, $2, and $5 coin denominations.
All payouts are made using the same valued coins as wagered.
Placing Bets
To place your bet before dealing the cards, click the BET button to bet one coin at a time. Each time, you’ll see the column corresponding to the number of coins you have bet turn to green at the top of the screen. Video poker accepts a maximum of bet of 5 coins (balance permitting). If you have sufficient credits remaining, you can click the BET MAX button to quickly bet the maximum 5 coins and immediately start the deal.
Starting the Deal
1. If you click the BET MAX button, the maximum 5 coins are bet and the deal begins automatically. If you choose to bet one coin at a time using the BET button you must manually start the deal by clicking the DEAL / DRAW button. Once the cards have been dealt, you have the option to hold / keep any of, all of, or none of these 5 cards (see below).
2. Any card that is held will not be replaced when you draw replacement cards by clicking the DEAL / DRAW a second time. You should hold any cards you feel will contribute to the best hand possible. To hold a card, either click on the card itself, or click the HOLD button located just below the card you want to hold.
3. Once you are done selecting which card(s) to hold (if any at all), click the DEAL / DRAW button a second time to draw your replacement cards. Any card that was not held will be replaced by a new card. The game is now complete and the resulting hand determines your payout.
