you find a card(s) that you want to play, just press the BUY button.
Alternatively, you can exit and pay nothing. Once you have purchased
a card(s) we cannot refund or credit your account for any reason whatsoever

to your account.

What are the rules for Video Poker?
Video Poker is a combination of traditional Poker and slot machines.
It is a contest that takes place between you and the Video Poker machine.
The machine will deal you your first five cards at which time you
must decide which cards you want to hold (keep) and which cards you
wish to discard. The objective of Video Poker is to end the game with
the strongest hand possible. The payout at the end of the game is
dependent on the value of the hand you are holding.
Jacks or Better
The name of the game "Jacks or Better" refers to the fact
that the lowest (or least valuable) standard poker hand that will
payout in this game is Jacks or Better, a hand containing at least
a pair of Jacks or more valuable cards.
Poker Hands
Royal Flush
A Royal Flush is the highest hand in standard Poker and consists of
an ace, king, queen, jack and ten that are all the same suit.
Straight Flush
A Straight Flush is a combination of five sequential cards that are
all the same suit.
Four of a Kind
Four of a Kind is a combination of four of the same cards.
Full House
A Full House is a combination of three cards of one denomination and
two cards of another denomination.
Flush
A Flush is a run of five cards that are all the same suit.
Straight
A Straight is a run of five cards in sequence. The cards in a Straight
can be from any suit.
Three of a Kind
Three of a kind is a hand that contains three cards of the same denomination.
Two Pairs
Two Pairs is a hand that consists of two sets of pairs and a fifth
card.
Jacks or Better
Jacks or Better is a hand that contains two face cards that are Jacks
or higher.
Payouts
When you click on the payout table from the Video Poker game you have
chosen, a payout table will appear for you to see.
Betting
Place your bet by clicking on the coins shown in the coin
tray. To raise or lower your bet, click on the up or down arrow located
in your row of buttons at the bottom of the machine. If you press
Max Bet, the machine will automatically take the maximum bet allowed
by the machine.
When you have finished placing your bet, click on the Deal button
and the game will deal out your first five cards. Once you have determined
which cards you would like to keep, you must place a hold on them
so that when you draw your next set of cards, they will remain. To
place a hold on any card, either click once on the card itself, or
on the Hold button located underneath the card. If a hold has been
put on any card, the hold button will illuminate.
To deselect a hold either click on the card or on the Hold button.
The hold light will turn off to indicate that the hold is off. Once
you have decided on which cards to hold you can discard the remaining
cards by pressing the Draw button. The cards you have not held will
be taken away and replaced by fresh cards from the deck.
When you are ready press the Draw button to get your next hand of
cards. The cards you have not held will be removed and replaced with
fresh cards from the deck. Once the winner is established, and proper
payouts are made, you can begin another hand of Video Poker by pressing
the Deal button again.
What are the Rules
for Slots?
Slot machines consist of three or more spinning reels with a variety
of symbols along their circumference. The object of the game is to
line up three (or more) of the most valuable symbols on these reels
on pay lines. When you succeed in doing this you will be paid out
according to the Pay Out Schedule of the particular slot machine you
are playing.
One Line Slots
In one line slots, there is only one pay-line, which consists
of one horizontal row across the reels with a yellow line through
it. In one-line slots, you win when one of the pay out combinations
occurs across this line.
Five Line Slots
In five line slots, your slot machine displays three rows
across the reels. You have a chance to win across all three rows and
across each diagonal, thus giving you five possible pay lines.
Payout Schedule
The winnings paid out on the slot machine are dependent on
the symbols showing on the pay-line in the center once the reels have
come to a stand still. You can view the payout table when you click
on it at the slot game you have chosen to play. Please note the figures
refer to the number of COINS that you will win. (The number of credits
won will depend on the coin size chosen.)
Winning on our Slots.
Choose the amount you wish to deposit into the slot machine
by clicking on the up arrow. Each time that you click on this arrow,
you are placing a bet into the slot machine. Continue clicking on
the up arrow. If you wish to decrease the amount of your bet, click
on the down arrow. Each click will decrease the value of your bet.
The amount wagered is not deducted from your account until you spin
the wheel. If you exit the game before hitting the spin button, you
will not lose any credits.
Each reel spins separately and comes to a stop in sequence. If the
symbols line up along a valid pay line then you win. If, when the
reels stop spinning, a valid combination of symbols is lined up it
will be highlighted and the pay out schedule will light up the winning
combination.
The Spin button starts a game on the slot machine. You must have enough
credits to meet your current betting level to start the game. The
BET MAX button automatically increases the number of coins bet to
the maximum for this slot machine and spins the reels. If you do not
have enough credits to place the bet you will not be allowed to spin.
Decide on the size of the bet you wish to make with the increase and
decrease buttons. When this is done start the game by pressing the
Spin button. Use the Max Bet button if you intend to wager the maximum
number of coins for this slot machine on the next spin.
