Here is how you should use the chart below:

1. Find your trouble hand on the chart.
2. Follow the chart's recommendation.

Example: Imagine you have Kc-Qc-Jc-Tc-4c. In this case you have a pat flush, but you also have an open ended straight flush draw including a draw to a royal flush. By looking at the chart below, you'll see that a royal flush draw is better than a pat flush, so make sure to discard the 4c and go for the straight flush/royal.

• Royal Flush Draw vs. Pat Straight Flush » Keep the Straight Flush
• Royal Flush Draw vs. Pat Flush » Keep the Royal Flush Draw
• Three of a Kind Aces vs. Full House » Keep the Three Aces
• Pat Straight vs. Four to a Straight Flush » Keep the Straight
• Two Pair vs. a Pair of Aces » Keep the Two Pair
• Four to a Flush vs. Four to a Straight » Keep the Four to a Flush
• Pair (Jacks through Aces) vs. Open Four to Straight » Keep the Pair
• Open Four to Straight vs. Pair (Twos through Tens) » Keep the Straight Draw
• Ace/King/Queen/Jack vs. Discard Everything » Keep the Ace/King/Queen/Jack

Expert Double Bonus Strategy

Here is how you should use the chart below:

1. Start at the top of the chart and work down.
2. When you see a hand that matches up with yours, follow that strategy.

Example: Imagine you have Qs-Js-Ts-3s-Jh. In this case, you'd match up with a few rows on the table below. Your hand would qualify for a high pair of Jacks, a Q-J-T suited with one penalty (the other Jack is a penalty card), and four to a flush. However, on the table you'll notice that Q-J-T suited with one penalty is higher than a four flush or a pair, so you should keep the Q-J-T suited and ditch the four flush and pair.

*Penalty cards are any cards which you plan to discard that hurt your chances of completing a draw. For example, if you have 7c-9c-Jc-8s-5h and plan to keep the 7c-9c-Jc, the 8s that you're discarding actually hurts you because there is one less card in the deck that completes your straight. However, it still makes sense to discard the 8s because you have better expected return going for the straight flush than to draw to the inside straight.

Straight (St.) penalty cards mean cards that interfere w/ a hand's possibility of making a straight. Flush penalty cards mean cards that interfere w/ a hand's possibility of making a flush. High Pair (HP) penalty cards mean cards that interfere w/ a hand's possibility of making a high pair (a pair Jacks or better).

CLICK TO PLAY

More Games Select from 19 different video poker variations with the button, including Jacks or Better, Bonus, Double Double, Triple Double, Full Pay Deuces, 16/10 (Not So Ugly) Deuces, Loose Deuces, three kinds of Joker Poker, and more. Keyboard You can use the mouse to click on cards to hold, or you may find it easier to use the keyboard: [1-5] = Hold/Cancel [Space] or [Enter] = Deal/Draw [T] = Trainer on/warn/off Trainer When the trainer is turned on, it lists the best plays and their average expected wins on the left. The CHANGE CARDS button allows you to explore the best play returns for hands that you enter. Yellow dots on the corners of the cards show the best cards to hold. The statistics on the right show your playing time, speed of play, the theoretical payback percentage of the game with perfect play, the projected payback percentage with your plays, and the cost of errors. Warn Mode You won't learn as much if you leave the trainer on all the time and just copy its answers, so we recommend playing with the trainer in WARN mode. In WARN mode, the trainer will only come on if you make a mistake, showing you the better play and giving you a chance to change your answer. However, the statistics on the right will still reflect your first answer, so you can see how you're doing without the trainer's help.

View Log Whether the trainer is on or not, the game keeps track of your statistics and a log of your play, which you can review by clicking VIEW LOG. If you were playing in WARN mode, the log reflects your first answer. The log shows the cards that were dealt, the best play, your play, and the cost of any errors you made. You can learn a lot by playing with the trainer off, then reviewing the log to see what you missed. 2x Pay To make things more fun, the game defaults to 2X PAY mode, so you get twice as many credits when you win. The trainer stats ignore the extra credits and record your wins as if they were the normal amount. If you prefer to play the traditional way, click on 2X PAY to switch to the standard 1X PAY. Paytable Edit Other paytable variations can be entered by clicking the numbers in the 1st or 5th columns of the paytable and using the up/down arrows to adjust the pays. The total payout is limited to 109.9%, so you may need to lower a payline before you can raise another. Be aware that the trainer adapts its best play recommendations to changes you make to the paytable. For example, if you raise the royal flush value, the trainer will adjust its recommendations in favor of cards that shoot for the royal more often.
