HOW TO PLAY
The game follows the rules of Five Card Draw poker. You are dealt
five cards. You choose which of these five cards you want to hold,
and which you want to discard. You then "draw" new cards to replace
those you have discarded. After the draw, you receive a payout based
upon the score of your hand.
You start with 100 chips. Each hand costs 5 chips to play. The
payouts for winning hands are as follows:
Pair of Jacks or Better: 5
Two Pair: 10
Three of a Kind: 15
Straight: 20
Flush: 30
Full House: 45
Four of a Kind: 125
Straight Flush: 250
Royal Flush: 4000
You can use the "Payouts" button in the game to see this chart.
When you run out of chips, you may begin a new game.
The Statistics command, located on the Options menu, will display the
number of hands and games that you have played.
