Deuces Wild Video Poker

Deuces Wild Video Poker is extremely popular because it is easy to play yet contains an element of strategy. The player first chooses what denomination of coins they wish to use, usually ranging from 5 cents to $5. The player then deposits coins into the machine and then bets up to three to five coins on the hand. Once the cards are dealt the player selects which cards to keep or "hold", and the remaining cards are replaced in the second deal. After the second deal the player is paid out based on the rank of the resulting poker hand.

Deuces Wild is great fun because all twos are wild. This means that they can be used as any card, giving the player a much greater chance of achieving high hands, including 5 of a kind! To compensate for this advantage, three of a kind is the minimum hand to win. The player is paid out according to the rank of the poker hand, as shown on the machine.


Jacks Or Better Video Poker

Jacks or Better Video Poker is extremely popular because it is easy and quick to play but still contains an element of strategy. To begin you choose what denomination of coins you wish to use, usually ranging from 5 cents to $5. You then deposit coins into the machine and bet up to three to five coins on the hand. Once the cards are dealt you may select which cards to keep or "hold", and the remaining cards are replaced in the second deal. After the second deal you are paid out based on the rank of the resulting poker hand.

Jacks or Better Video Poker is the classic version, using no wild cards and only one "deck" of cards. The minimum payout hand is a pair of Jacks, hence the name! This game most accurately represents the odds of poker, and gives high payouts for good hands.


Jokers Wild Video Poker

Jokers Wild Video Poker is extremely popular because it is easy and quick to play but still contains an element of strategy. To begin you choose what denomination of coins you wish to use, usually ranging from 5 cents to $5. You then deposit coins into the machine and bet up to three to five coins on the hand. Once the cards are dealt you may select which cards to keep or "hold", and the remaining cards are replaced in the second deal. After the second deal you are paid out based on the rank of the resulting poker hand.

Jokers Wild uses a 53-card deck which includes one wild-card joker. The joker can be used as any card to improve the player's hand. The minimum payout hand is two pair.


King Of The Decks Video Poker

King of the Decks Video Poker is extremely popular because it is easy and quick to play but still contains an element of strategy. To begin you choose what denomination of coins you wish to use, usually ranging from 5 cents to $5. You then deposit coins into the machine and bet up to three to five coins on the hand.

Pachinko

Pachinko is a very popular Japanese table game in which multiple balls are launched and dropped through a network of pegs. You receive bonus balls if you can land a ball in one of the three bonus areas. The two side bonus areas pay out a bonus of seven balls, while the center bonus area pays out seven balls plus a spin. If the bonus spin reveals three identical symbols, an additional bonus of 50 balls is awarded.

You can control the velocity of the launch by clicking and holding on the launch button. The longer you wait to release the ball, the faster it will come out. There is an indicator beside the launch button that shows the speed of the launch.

You may purchase balls in five or one hundred ball increments and can choose $.05, $.25, $1, or $5 balls. When you decide to cash out, you will receive money equal to the remaining balls multiplied by the dollar value of the ball.


Slot Machines

Slots games consist of inserting coins into the machine and then pulling the lever to set the reels in motion. The object is to line up specific patterns to win money. Your Casino Chips are automatically converted into coins ($.05, $.25, $1.00, or $5.00 denominations) and then used in the slot machines. Depending on the machine chosen, you can bet up to three or four coins on each spin.

To be eligible for the Progressive Jackpot, you must play the maximum number of coins per spin and be betting with $1 or $5 denominations. You may hit the "bet max" button to play for the maximum amount of coins and the reels will automatically begin to spin. If you prefer, you may deposit one coin at a time and then pull the lever to start the reels spinning. Each game has different payouts which are displayed on the machine. Winning combinations are displayed in the center of the reels as marked by the pay line.
