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

Decide on the coin size you wish to play with by going to the coin size menu.

Decide how many coins you want to bet with by clicking on the appropriate column on the payout schedule or by using the Increase and Decrease buttons. These are represented by either a (+) and (-) symbol, or an Up and Down arrow.

Click the Deal button to start a new 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 card by clicking on it and unselect a card by clicking on it again. When the cards are held they will be marked to indicate this.



Choose the cards that can potentially give you the highest payout. 

When you are ready click the Draw button to get your new cards. The cards you have not held will be removed and replaced with fresh cards from the deck. If your cards make up a winning hand you will be offered an opportunity to double your money or to collect your winnings. 

Once you have collected your winnings you can begin another hand of video poker by clicking the Deal button again.
