video poker requires only a basic understanding of the composition of various video poker hands. The game itself is simple.

Click Deal to start the game.
Your first hand of cards will appear in the play area. Examine them carefully.
You should compare the cards in your hand with the payout schedule on screen. Any winning hands in your first hand will be indicated on the payout schedule and, if automatic hold is enabled, the cards will automatically be held for you.
You can hold a column of cards by clicking on the card in that row in the first hand and unselect a column of cards by clicking on that card again. When you hold a card a bar saying held will be displayed across the card.

Click the Draw button to get your new cards. If your cards make up a winning hand you will be offered an opportunity to double your money or to collect your winnings.

When you receive your first hand you must decide which cards to hold and which to discard. When you hold a card in the first hand, all the cards in the same positions in the other handns will take the same value. The payout at the end of the game is dependent on the value of the hand you are holding. If you have won, the game will offer you an additional opportunity to increase your winnings by participating in a doubling phase.
