Video Poker

Video Poker is a variation of the poker game that looks just like a slot machine. Unlike Caribbean Stud Poker the game is divided in two parts. This offers you the possibility to hold cards in the first round. After every round, the cards are shuffled again. Unlike live poker, video poker is not played against other players. The goal is not to get the best hand, but to get a hand that's good enough to get paid. You will see a table on the screen that tells you how much every hand is worth.
