You start by choosing a denominator. Every platform provides its own options for you to choose from. That may include .1 cent (penny), .2 cents, .5 cents, .25 cents, .50 cents, $1 (Dollar), and up.

After selecting your denominator, you will then have the option of choosing how much you would like to bet. Most games have a limit to what you can bet. That's usually from 1 to 5 coins, whereas others allow you to bet up to 10 coins, 100 coins, or more.

Now you are ready to start playing. The majority of games have two ways to place your first bet. You can either bet one or more coins at a time by clicking on "Bet" (or "Bet 1") or you can hit the "Bet Max" button to bet the max amount allowed. After that, you can continue betting the same amount by hitting the "Deal" button.

Betting max, by either hitting the "Bet Max" button or betting one coin at a time until you reach the limit, will usually result in your hand being dealt out automatically. Otherwise, if you bet anything under the limit, click "Deal" to begin and 5 cards will be displayed onscreen.

Basic video poker pay tables

1 coin bet

• Jacks or Better = 1
• Two Pair = 2
• Three of a kind = 3
• Straight = 4 or 5
• Flush = 6
• Full House = 9
• Four of a kind = 20 or 25
• Straight Flush = 40 or 50
• Royal Straight Flush = 250

5 coins bet

• Jacks or Better = 5
• Two Pair = 5 or 10
• Three of a kind = 15
• Straight = 20 or 25
• Flush = 30 or 35
• Full House = 45
• Four of a kind = 100 or 125
• Straight Flush = 200 or 250
• Royal Straight Flush = 4000

Note the difference between payouts for hitting a Royal with 1 or 5 coins bet. Each coin doubles your winnings for all hits, except for a Royal. To win the jackpot award for a Royal, you must bet max coins.

You should always go for whatever pays more and here's why: You only need 2 more spades for a flush that pays 30 to 35 coins as you have 3 spades, but you also have 2 fours, so you only need 1 more for 15 coins and 2 more will give you a four of a kind that pays 100 to 125 coins.

It's fun to gamble since you have a chance to win, but your chances of losing are higher. For some, gambling is a problem as it can be addictive. Winning seems so easy after you win, so some stake back their winnings plus more trying to win again.

Others can't stand to lose, so after losing a few bucks, they will continue to gamble trying to win their money back.

This takes all the fun out of gambling. However, if you gamble responsibly by setting limits to what you can afford to lose, then gambling can be loads of fun especially when you win.
