Video Poker (multi-hand)
Rule Authority:
InterCasino Multi-Hand Video Poker is played and programmed according
to Atlantic City Poker rules.
Authority: New Jersey Casino Control Commission. Rule Exception: None.
Premise:
An InterCasino Multi-Hand Video Poker machine operates like any Video
Poker machine found in the casinos throughout the world. Players may
play up to ten hands at the same time, and are dealt five cards per
hand. The objective is to make the best poker hand possible by holding
cards.
One difference, which is greatly favorable for the player, is
that you can switch your bet from $0.10 to $5 a game without changing
to another machine.
A 52-card deck is used (53 for Joker Poker) for each hand played
and is reshuffled after each hand. The different combinations and their
respective payoffs for each machine are shown in the Payoff section
below. One more variation is the Double Up feature that allows players
to double any winnings in a simple "double or nothing" bet at the end
of their hand.
How to Play:
To begin playing Multi-Hand Video Poker select which coin
denomination you wish to play - $0.10, $0.25, $0.50, $1, $2, or $5. To
increase or decrease denominations, please click on the "right arrow"
or "left arrow" buttons, respectively, at the top of the Multi-Hand
Video Poker machine.
Once you have selected your coin denomination, you need to
select the size of your bet. You may click on the "Bet One" button up
to the amount of coins you would like to play to a maximum of 5 coins.
If you would like to play with the maximum amount of coins (5), you may
alternatively choose to simply click the "Bet Max" button.
When you are ready, click on the "Deal" button to distribute the cards.
You will be given 5 cards.
The machine uses a 52 card
deck (53 for Joker Poker) for each hand played, which is played fresh
after each hand.
Hold onto the card(s) that you need in order to achieve the
highest ranked poker hand possible. You may hold cards by simply
clicking on them. When you do so, the held cards will be displayed with
the word HOLD on them. Once you have selected a given amount of cards
to hold, click on the "Draw" button. The cards that were not marked
HOLD will be replaced. If after this replacement you have any
combination of cards that qualifies for a payout, your credit will be
increased by the amount of coins shown in the Paid field.
Double Up:
If you have qualified for a payout, the Double Up button will
become active. The Double-Up feature offers users the ability to bet
their winnings in a simple proposition bet. If the card drawn by player
is higher than the card drawn by the dealer, player doubles his
winnings. If the cards are the same nothing happens. You can continue
to play this double up feature as long as you continue to win.
To change the type of Video Poker machine you are playing,
click on "Games" in the menu bar and select the game you would like to
play. When you change the game type, your credit and coin denominations
will not change.
Note:
You can only change the Video Poker machines when your hand is
finished, i.e. when the BET buttons are active.
Progressive Jackpot Games:
The following games offer a progressive jackpot: 25¢ Super
Jackpot and $1 Super Jackpot. Unlike regular video poker games,
progressive video poker games operate on a fixed denomination. So, if
you are playing 25¢ Super Jackpot and you would like to switch to
$1
Super Jackpot, you need to exit the 25¢ Super Jackpot game and
then
enter the $1 Super Jackpot game. If you are playing a regular video
poker game for $2 or $5 and then switch to a progressive video poker
game, the denomination and Credits will change to the match the
denomination of the game selected. The top payout on a progressive
jackpot machine is not fixed as in regular video poker games. The
Jackpot value starts from 1250 coins and grows each time anybody makes
a bet.
Payoffs:
Currently you can choose any of 7 Video Poker games. The different
games and their respective payouts are described below.
