Rules and hand evaluation
This is a 52-card draw-poker game without wild cards. After the initial five-card deal, choose the cards to hold and draw replacements for the others. The final hand is evaluated against the selected paytable column.
The lowest listed paying category is jacks or better. A high-card hand alone does not qualify. The payout schedule, rather than another player’s cards, determines the return.
Historical paytable checked against the screen
These are coins returned for one completed hand with 5 coins staked on that hand. They are not cash amounts or profit-to-stake ratios. Multiply coins by the chosen coin value to convert to money. The in-game help takes precedence if a current edition differs.
| Final hand | Coins returned |
|---|---|
| Royal flush | 4000 |
| Straight flush | 350 |
| Four aces or four eights | 400 |
| Four sevens | 250 |
| Other four of a kind | 100 |
| Full house | 40 |
| Flush | 25 |
| Straight | 20 |
| Three of a kind | 15 |
| Two pairs | 10 |
| Jacks or better | 5 |
Reading the wager and return
A return equal to the stake gives that hand’s wager back; it is not an additional profit of the same amount. Royal-flush awards may rise differently from other rows between coin settings. The photographed amount is not a promise of a current currency limit, casino offer or progressive jackpot.
Paytable changes and hold decisions affect theoretical return. We have not assigned a new RTP from these screenshots alone. Any optional Double or Gamble control risks the amount placed into that separate feature; it is not part of the base hand award.
