After the gambler has decided on which cards he wishes to retain, they should press ‘draw’, which will mean that any fresh cards will be dealt if desired. The hand is now completed, with the Electronic Poker machine analyzing the hand to see if it is the same as any of the winning hands printed on the payment schedule.

Generally, the lowest succeeding hand on a Video Poker machine is a pair of jacks with the award money increasing for each and every better hand. A common list of winning hands starts with jacks or better, moving on to two pairs, three of a kinds, straights, flushes, full houses, 4 of a kinds, straight flushes and finally royal flushes. It is obvious that the payout schedule can change from game to game, so that knowledgeable gamblers are able to choose the most money-making game every time.

As soon as the initial round has played out, the player can either choose to remain on in an attempt to increase their winnings, or press the ‘collect’ button to retrieve any cash that has been won. Further, several versions of the game give the enthusiast an opportunity to double their wins, in which instance a further round is played. There are also differences among individual games, with some virtual decks having wild cards and other differing aspects to increase playability.
