Jacks Or Better
Jacks or Better involves making the best possible hand by holding and drawing cards. Possible winning hands start at a pair of jacks and progress to a natural royal flush.
The game begins with the player selecting the amount they wish to bet (from one to five credits). Once the amount is decided players will click on the "Deal" button to receive five randomly drawn cards. Players will have the option to hold some (or all) of the cards displayed. The word "Held" appears above cards the player selects to hold. The player then clicks "Deal" a second time to receive new randomly drawn cards, replacing cards that have not been held. Once the new cards have been dealt the player's hand is compared to the payout list and credits are awarded for winning hands.
