Double Draw Aces Video Poker
So far it looks like another Bonus Poker game but there is one exclusive feature to this game. If the player is dealt at least 2 Aces on the initial draw, the player can then draw two times from the deck instead of just one time. This is how the game got its name. Now, it is important to note that the cards that are discarded after the second draw will be re-inserted and shuffled back into the deck. That means you have the possibility of receiving the same card(s) again although it is highly unlikely. The double-draw is a fun feature which can help players hit the bonus payouts for Four-of-a-Kind of Aces. Where to Play Double Draw AcesThis game was developed by International Game Technology (IGT). Land-based casinos that have IGT poker games are likely to offer this game. Double Draw Aces can be found in the following IGT game-pack machine: Game King Video Poker. The Game King machine allows single and multi-denominational bets depending on the casino's configuration of the machine. The machine normally operates on a ticket in/ticket out (TITO) system. Other online video poker games that normally come included in the Game King pack are:
