Electronic poker
Basic Rules
To play online video poker, you click the ‘coin’ icon to specify the value of credits you intend to wager on with. The pay out scale for electronic poker is shown after you click about the ‘Payouts’ button.
You can bet anywhere from 1 to five credits at a time. You’ve got 2 choices in wagering:
Hit the ‘bet one’ button after for every credit you wish to bet per hand
Hit the ‘bet max’ option as soon as to bet 5 credits per hand. Clicking on Bet Max will make the max wager and automatically start the initial deal without you having to push the Offer option.
The moment you’ve got placed your bet you’ll be able to press the ‘Deal’ button to receive your cards.
5 cards appear about the screen after you hit the deal option. At this time you have to decide on the cards you wish to keep. You are allowed one re-deal and 1 chance to draw anywhere from zero to five new cards. Each card must be individually chosen in case you wish to keep it. Your chosen cards are indicated through the word ‘held’ getting displayed across the kept card. Cards marked from the word held won’t be changed after you draw new cards. You’ll be able to very easily change your mind about hanging on to a card by picking it a 2nd time. The held notation then vanishes from across the previously chosen card.
If you could have a pat hand (5 excellent cards), it is possible to opt for to maintain all of the cards and not draw any new cards. On the other hand, you’ll be able to decide on to throw away all of your cards and draw five new cards
When you’re ready to draw new cards, you press the offer option. The cards not marked by the word held is going to be replaced, resulting in your final hand. Should you win, you accumulate credits that are deposited directly into your account.
