Joker Poker
The paytable begins with a Kings or Better hand since the Joker card gives the player an extra edge. The Joker also adds two extra winning hands to the paytable: Joker Royal Flush and Five-of-a-kind. The key to having a perfect online video poker strategy is to secure winning hands and only in very rare cases drop a winning hand for a chance of a higher paying poker hand. It is also important to bet 5 coins per hand, since a Natural Royal Flush will pay considerably more this way. Always look for a Joker Poker machine that operates with a denomination you can afford by playing with 5 coin bets for every hand. Here’s the standard paytable for Joker Poker:
Some Joker Poker machines have higher payouts for a Natural Royal Flush, in some cases up to 20,000. Bear in mind that there is a 0.000025% chance of hitting a Natural Royal Flush, that’s one chance out of 4,000,000. However, this should not discourage you as it does happen sometimes. Joker Poker double-up featureMost Joker Poker machines will have an option to double-up (sometimes called Double or Nothing) on your winning hands. This means you will get a chance to double your last win at a completely random game. The machine will deal one face-up card for itself and four cards face-down for you. You have to pick one of the four cards hoping that it has a higher value than the machine’s card; 2 being the lowest and an Ace or Joker being the highest. If you get the higher card, you’ll double your winnings for the last hand played and get another chance of doubling your current total win. Please note that this is a risky gamble and should only be done for low paying hands. If you get a Full House or better hand, it is strongly recommended not to use the double-up feature. Joker Poker Strategy TipsAlways hold a low pair rather than keeping just one high card King or Ace Never discard a winning pair unless you have four to a Straight Flush, or Poker/Natural Royal Flush Hold the Joker and deal for 4 new cards if you have no paying pair and no three/four cards to flush, straight, straight flush or Royal Flush.
