The game is now completed, with the Video Poker machine scanning the cards to see if it matches any of the winning hands shown on the payout schedule.

It goes without saying that the pay out schedule can range from machine to machine, so that discerning bettors are able to choose the most beneficial game every instance.

As soon as the initial round has completed, the player can either decide to remain on and try to to maximize their earnings, or they can press the ‘collect’ button to retrieve any credits that might been won. Additionally, a few styles of the game allow the enthusiast a chance to increase their wins, in which situation another round is played. There are also differences between individual machines, with some decks of cards including wild cards and other differing characteristics to enhance playability.
