Electronic Poker is a beloved game that usually will be bet on in casinos across the world, or in your house on your computer, using a net connection.

The game is now completed, with the Video Poker machine analyzing the hand to see if it matches any of the winning hands printed on the pay out schedule.

As soon as the first round has completed, the player can either decide to remain on and try to to increase their winnings, or press the ‘collect’ button to retrieve any credits that they may have won. Further, some versions of the game give the bettor a chance to increase their winnings, in which case a further hand is played. There are also variations among specific games, with some virtual decks including wild cards and other varying elements to increase playability.
