Video Poker is a favored game that usually will be enjoyed in casinos across the globe, or alternatively at your house on your personal computer, through a web account. The game rules are very simple and consist of the player attempting to get the greatest combination of cards possible in order to come away with cash. On this account it is much the same as a normal game of poker, without the interaction with any other players. Of course, methods used in a physical game of poker, like bluffing, will be irrelevant in Video Poker.

The game of Electronic Poker begins when the bettor inserts credits (either tokens, credit slips or cash) into the video poker machine and pushes the play button. A 5 card hand will be "given out" on the video screen.

The Video Poker game also has hold buttons, and gamblers should now choose which cards to keep and which to throw away. For the cards the gambler would like to keep, the 'hold' buttons should be pressed so that they illuminate. The player can choose to keep any amount of cards they wish, from all to none.

After the bettor has selected which cards she wishes to retain, they should press 'draw', which will mean that any new cards will be given out if desired. The round is now finished, with the Electronic Poker machine scanning the cards to see if it is the same as any of the winning hands printed on the payment schedule.

Generally, the minimum winning hand on an Electronic Poker machine is a pair of jacks with the prize money getting larger for each and every better hand. A common list of winning hands starts with jacks or better, and moves on to 2 pairs, three of a kinds, straights, flushes, full houses, 4 of a kinds, straight flushes and last but not least royal flushes. It is obvious that the payout schedule can range from game to game, so that discerning players are agile enough to choose the most money-making game every instance.

After the initial round has finished, the player can either choose to stay on and try to to increase their winnings, or press the 'collect' button to cash out any credits that they may have won. Additionally, some versions of the game allow the bettor a chance to increase their profits, in which situation another round is played. There are also variations among specific machines, with some decks of cards including wild cards and other varying aspects to increase playability.
