Video Poker: free Jacks or Better with play credits
Video Poker is a card game for one. You are dealt five cards, choose which to keep, and draw new cards for the rest. The best poker hand pays, from a pair of Jacks or better up to a royal flush.
It uses play credits only. There is no real money, nothing to buy, and nothing in the game is money. The home screen says so too. Each level gives you a credit goal to reach, so it plays like a puzzle about which cards to hold.
Also called: free video poker, jacks or better video poker, video poker with play credits, play video poker online, video poker
How to play
- Open the game and choose a level. Each level gives you starting credits and a goal to reach.
- Pick your bet, 1 to 5 credits, with the plus and minus buttons.
- Tap Deal to get five cards.
- Tap the cards you want to keep. Those are held.
- Tap Draw. The cards you did not hold are replaced. The pay table shows what each hand pays, and a pair of Jacks or better is the lowest one that does.
- Reach the goal to win the level and open the next. Hint shows the best hold. If your credits run out, the level ends, and a free refill lets you try again.
Tips
- Tap Hint to see which cards to hold. The game weighs every possible draw to find the best hold.
- In Settings you can show the best hold before you choose, and get tips after each draw.
- Take the levels in order. The goals get farther away, so the early levels are good practice.
