Electronic Poker is a popular game that can be played in casinos all over the globe, or in your house on your personal computer, using a net account. The game rules are very straightforward and consist of the player attempting to get the best mixture of cards achievable in order to win cash. On this account it is very similar as a regular game of poker, apart from the line of contact with other players. Of course, methods used in a physical game of poker, such as tricking, will be useless in Video Poker.

The game of Electronic Poker starts when the enthusiast puts credits (either tokens, tickets or money) into the machine and pushes the deal button. A five card hand will be "given out" on the video screen.

The Video Poker game also has buttons with 'hold' written on them, and enthusiasts should now pick which cards to hold and which to throw away. For the cards the enthusiast wishes to keep, the 'hold' buttons should be pressed so that they light up. The player can choose to keep any amount of cards they wish, whether it is all or none.

After the player has selected which cards she would like to keep, they should press 'draw', which will mean that any fresh cards are needed they will be given out. The game is now completed, with the Electronic Poker machine analyzing the hand to see if it matches any of the winning hands shown on the payout schedule.

Typically, 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, moving on to 2 pairs, three of a kinds, straights, flushes, full houses, 4 of a kinds, straight flushes and finally royal flushes. It goes without saying that the payment schedule can vary from machine to machine, so that skillful players are able to select the most profitable machine each and every time.

As soon as the first round has finished, the player can either decide to remain on in an attempt to maximize their earnings, or press the 'collect' button to retrieve any credits that they may have won. Further, several styles of the game allow the enthusiast an opportunity to increase their profits, in which instance a further round is played. There are also differences between specific machines, with some decks of cards having wild cards and other differing characteristics to enhance playability.
