Jack Or Better
How to play
The player aims to get the best hand possible.
The payoffs are marked right on the face of the Video Poker machine.
Betting is pretty straightforward. On any given machine you can typically choose $0.25, $0.50, $1, or $5 games.
And the bets are 1x, 2x, 3x, 4x, or 5x (or maximum bet) whichever game you're playing.
So if you're playing a $1 game, you can place bets of $1, $2, $3, $4, or $5.
If you bet 5 coins, all winning hands are paid out multiplied by a factor of 5 (except for the royal flush). This is a bonus amount designed as an incentive to play five coins. And those players who don't play the maximum coins are just setting up the best payoffs for those who do.
It is very important to know that the payoff ratios vary from game to game.
Jacks or Better may pay 25:1 for Four Of A Kind.
These ratios do not necessarily reflect the true odds, so knowing your game helps you play smarter.
