Online Poker Rules
Video Pokers are a relatively modern invention, a merger of
sorts between traditional Poker and slot machines. A video poker game is a
contest between the player and the machine. The dealer (the machine) will deal
the player two hands of five cards each. When the player receives his first hand
he must decide which cards to hold (keep) or discard. The objective is to finish
the game with the strongest hand possible. The payout at the end of the game is
dependent on the value of the hand the player is holding. Often the player is
offered a further opportunity to increase his winnings by participating in a
Doubling phase.
Aces & Faces
The game 'Aces & Faces' is standard video poker with
extra high payouts for Four of a Kind payouts made of Aces or Face cards
(Kings, Queens and Jacks).

use.
The Increase> and Decrease buttons control how
many coins you wish to wager. You can also click on the appropriate column of

The Deal button starts any game of Video
poker. You must have enough credits to meet your current wagering level to start

Doubling If you wish, you can choose the 'Allow
Double' option in the 'Options' menu of the game. (It is on by default.). This
toggles the doubling option on or off. If this option is not turned on the game
will not allow you to double on a winning hand!
The doubling option
gives you a chance to further increase your winnings! After completing a winning
hand you will be given the chance to double the payout or to collect your
winnings. The 'Double' and 'Collect' button will be highlighted. To collect your
winnings, press the 'Collect' button. The game will then be finished and you
will have a chance to play again. If you want to try and win even more, press
the 'Double' button.
When you press the 'Double' button, the cards will
be removed from the screen and a further five cards will replace them. The
dealer's card will be exposed, while the remaining four cards will be left face
down. Select one of the 'face down' cards by clicking on it. The four cards will
flip over to reveal themselves. The card you select will be marked. If the card
you chose has a rank greater than that of the dealer's card, you will win an
amount double that of your original payout. You will then be given the chance to
double your payout even further or to collect your winnings. If your chosen card
is of an equal rank, it is a tie, and you will have a chance to collect your
original winnings or to double up. If the card you chose is of a lesser rank,
you lose and will not receive any payout.
Each doubling action gives you
the chance to double the current value of the payout at the risk of having no
payout at all should you lose. You will not be given the option of doubling if
your current payout equals or exceeds the Casino's limit on doubling. To
determine what the doubling limit is please consult the Casino's web
page.
