Video Poker at the Magic
Casino
is played after downloading the free software or by getting a
free cdrom mailed to you.
The Game
Video poker is an extremely popular game in the casino.
Magic Casino has created its Aces Up the Sleeve Poker game with authentic sound
and outstanding sharpness. You can choose to play with coin values of $0.25,
$0.50, $1, and $5. Your total wager determines the amount of your payout.
The multi-player video poker game at Magic Casino allows players to chat with
one another while they play online. You can even observe others play video poker
without playing youself.
How It Works
Once you have entered the online casino, you can easily
check the guest book to see if any of your friends are currently in the casino
and the games in which they are currently participating by clicking on
"Information/Info." You can then go back to the game menu to select
your game. In the "game room", some video poker machines will be
occupied while others will be free. If you find all the machines occupied,
simply click on the arrow in the upper right corner to move to the next game
room. In the upper left corner, you will find the VIP arrow that leads to
exciting, new features for loyal Magic Casino members.
How To Play
The object of video draw poker is to obtain a five-card
poker hand that contains at least one pair of Aces Up the Sleeve. The better
your hand, the better your payoff.
In the game room, you will find various groups of video poker machines. You can
choose to play at any vacant machine by first clicking on a group. If at least
one machine in a group is occupied, the denomination of the four machines in
that group ($0.25, $0.50, $1, or $5) will be displayed at the top of the group
and in the "Table Info" box to the right. If you choose to play in a
group where all four machines are unoccupied, you will be asked to select the
denomination of the four machines in the group.
Once you have selected a group of machines, press the PLAY button to activate
your individual video poker machine. Insert money into the machine by first
clicking on the 25-cent coin, 1-dollar coin, 5-dollar bill, or 20-dollar bill in
the lower left-hand corner and then clicking on the machine's coin slot.
Next, choose the total amount that you wish to wager in the round by clicking on
the BET ONE button up to five times. If you choose to wager the maximum amount
(the machine denomination x 5) simply push the BET MAX button. If you press the
BET MAX button, your cards will be dealt automatically. If you use the BET ONE
button to select the number of wagered coins, you must press the DEAL button to
receive your cards.
You may draw up to five new cards to improve your hand. To keep individual
cards, click on the cards or on the HOLD button beneath the cards. Then when you
press DEAL, you will receive new cards in the positions of the cards that were
not held. Whenever you like, you may cash out to receive your credits in the
machine by pressing the CASH OUT button. Your money will be returned to your
credit balance. To exit the Video Poker room and return to the main menu, you
must play out the hand you have been dealt and cash out. Then click on the EXIT
button.
