About

Classic five-card draw video poker. Bet one to five credits, hold the cards you want with the number keys 1-5 (one key per card, left to right), and draw replacements once. A full pay table is always on screen and lights up the winning hand, from jacks or better up to a 4000-credit royal flush at maximum bet. Grow 100 credits into 1000 to break the bank.

Objective: Grow your 100 starting credits to 1000 without going broke.
