Rules of Joker Poker

At the beginning of the game, you need to determine the size of the bet. It can be 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 game currency units (virtual coins). The exact amount is selected by pressing the Bet One button. You can choose the size of the virtual coin in real credits. This is done using the denomination menu at the bottom of the screen. Using the buttons with the minus and plus, you can select the amount from 0.2 to 5 credits.

The control panel also has the following buttons:

• Bet max – allows you to place the largest bet
• Deal – start the dealing

At the top of the screen is a paytable. It lists the payouts in coins for each combination and each stipulated bet size. The selected unit value of the game currency should multiply these amounts. The final size of the winnings will depend on it. The current balance in credits is displayed in the Money cell.

After clicking the Deal button, the dealing begins. You’ll receive 5 cards. Clicking on any of them allows you to hold them. When all the cards you want are held, click the Draw button. The remaining cards will be replaced with new ones. After that, the results are summed up. The most helpful combination is a pure Royal Flush (Ace, King, Queen, Jack, and ten of one suit) without jokers. It brings the following amounts in coins for a bet of 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 units of game currency, respectively 250, 500, 750, 1,000, and 1250. Other combinations are paid as follows:

• 5 cards – 200, 400, 600, 800, and 1,000
• Royal Flush with jokers – 100, 200, 300, 400, and 500
• Straight Flush (5 cards of the same suit in order) – 50, 100, 150, 200, and 250
• Four of a kind (4 cards of the same denomination) – 17, 34, 51, 68, and 85
• Full House (3 + 2 cards of the same denomination) – 7, 14, 21, 28, and 35
• Flush (5 cards of the same suit) – 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25
• Straight (5 any cards in order) – 3, 6, 9, 12, and 15
• Three identical cards – 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10
• Two pairs, kings or higher – 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5

Risk Game

Once you collect a winning combination, the risk game is automatically launched. If the win suits you and there is no desire to risk, you can return to the main mode by pressing the Collect key. In the risk game, there are two options for a bet:

• All the last win
• Half of the last win

After selecting the betting mode, you must select one of the 4 closed cards. If its value is larger than the one of the closed card, the set amount will double. In this situation, the risk game will continue. If the card value is smaller, the set amount is lost.
