Before you can win at the game of poker you first need to know how to play. It is really quite simple to get started. Players will usually sit around a table. A dealer is chosen who shuffles the cards and then deals each player a hand of five cards. Players will then each have a turn in deciding which cards to replace and will give them to the dealer who will replace them with new cards. You can choose to discard any amount of cards from just one to all five. When everyone had a turn, cards are shown and the winner takes whatever is in the pot.

Now let's run through how video poker is played. Video poker is played by first choosing whether you want to play with nickels, dimes, quarters, etc. Next, you decide how many coins you want to wager. You can usually bet from 1 to 10 coins. If you want to bet the maximum amount of coins, just hit "Max Bet" or hit "Bet One" as many times as you like to place your bet. If you hit "Bet Max" your cards will be sealed out automatically; however, if you bet less, hit the "Deal" button, then hold the cards you want to keep and hit "Draw".

You probably heard the term, "put on your poker face". What this really means is to try to keep a straight face no matter what cards you are holding since, in this game, there is no better strategy than bluffing. One way to bluff is to keep raising the bet making the other players think you have something good so they will fold and you will win what's in the pot. The best thing about bluffing is it can help you to win without even holding a pair. You can also use the "Double bluff" and make them think you are bluffing when you really have a great hand.

Always look for a bonus machine that pays more for hitting four 2's, 3's 4's, or aces since the takeaway is just a few coins less for any other four-of-a-kind. Also, try to find a triple play machine, which ups your chance of winning since you have three hands instead of one so if you don't get something in the first draw, you may still get something in the second or third. One thing that's important is to always bet the max because if you hit a Royal with a few coins in, you won't get paid nearly as much as if you bet max.
