Video poker is the improved version of classic slots. The rules and the game principles are almost the same, the machine itself being modernized.

The purpose of video poker is to get the highest winning combination of cards. The winning combination is a definite order of the player’s cards.

There are a lot of kinds of video poker. They all have different sets of winning combinations.

Usually there’s a list of winning combinations at the top corner of the machine. Also there is a payout table. At the center of the machine you can see a screen where the player's cards are shown.

The game starts after a player drops a coin into the machine. Then five cards are dealt to him. He has an option of changing cards. H If he needs to do it, he has to choose which cards to keep and which cards to exchange.

The player has to push the button “Deal” if he needs some cards to be changed. Then the player’s cards for winning combinations are being checking up.

Here is the list of the most usual winning hands in video poker.
