How to Play

To begin play, LEFT-CLICK on the BET ONE button in order to bet one coin at a time with each click, or LEFT-CLICK on the MAX BET button to bet the maximum permissible coins (5) for the game.

As soon as you have placed your bet, LEFT-CLICK on DEAL to start the game. Five cards are selected from a deck of 52 cards . The card selection is completely random, therefore all cards have the same chance of being dealt. Your five cards are then displayed face up on the game screen.

After the cards are dealt, you are given the opportunity to HOLD or discard any or all of your five cards. HOLD buttons are displayed below each card on the screen for this purpose. LEFT-CLICK on the HOLD button(s) which are below the cards(s) that you wish to retain. All other cards will be replaced.

If you HOLD a card in error, you can easily correct your mistake by another LEFT-CLICK on the HOLD button. This action will deselect the HOLD, but must be done before proceeding to the next step.

LEFT-CLICK on the DEAL button, and the software will replace the card(s) you discard with the same number of new cards. As always the card selection process is completely random. Your new cards are displayed face up, together with the cards that you previously selected. The software then automatically analyzes your hand. You will be advised of the highest winning card combination according to Poker Hands in Table II. When you win, your account is automatically credited. The hand is now finished and you can start a new hand.
