  3. Draw and get paid. Draw new cards into the open spots. A pair of Jacks or better wins, with bigger hands paying out up the table.

About Video Poker

Jacks or Better is the classic video poker game. You’re dealt five cards; tap the ones you want to keep, then draw to replace the rest. Any pair of Jacks or higher pays out, and bigger hands — two pair, trips, straight, flush, full house, four of a kind, straight flush and the royal — pay more, right up the paytable shown on screen. Bet one to five credits a hand; betting five unlocks the big royal-flush bonus. You play with free practice credits — no real money. No signup, no download.

Up the standard paytable shown on screen: Jacks or better, two pair, three of a kind, straight, flush, full house, four of a kind, straight flush, and the royal flush — each paying more than the last, multiplied by your bet.
