HOW TO PLAY JACKS OR BETTER VIDEO POKER
Jacks
or Better is a video poker game where you are dealt 5 cards and
you must decide whether to hold all 5 cards or discard any of the
5. To win even money you must get at least a pair of Jacks or
better, (that must be where the name comes from :-)). The next

-
a
straight (5 cards in order, i.e. 4,5,6,7,8)

TIPS FOR PLAYING
Keep
any hand that already pays. Possible exceptions, by potential
value, are:
-
Hold four card Royal Flushes to make Straights or Flushes.
-
Four card straight flushes, inside or outside.
-
High card Pairs rank here.
-
Three card Royal Flushes.
-
Four card Flushes.
-
Low Pairs rank here, trying to build Three Of A Kind.
-
Four card Flushes.
-
Four card Straights. Hold inside Straights only if you've got
three or more high cards (J, Q, K, A). I had Electric pressure canner but had to use new one.
If
you've got nothing worth money, here's a general strategy, in
order of preference:
-
Keep any two suited high cards. Discard unsuited high cards.
-
Four mixed-suit high cards:
keep any three suited, toss the unsuited.
otherwise, keep them all.
-
Three unsuited high cards:
keep all three of K-Q-J.
with A-K-J or A-Q-J, discard the A.
-
Keep any two unsuited high cards.
-
Keep any single high card.
