Poker Pursuit
Video Poker with a twist!
How to Win at Poker Pursuit
Objective of the Game
Poker Pursuit is Video Poker with a difference! You will find Video Poker machines in just about every casino. Video Poker is enormously popular with players as it is your skill that can make the difference between winning and losing. Whereas in Video Poker you bet just once and play, in Poker Pursuit you get the chance to increase your stake as the cards are dealt. Your winnings are based on the Poker Hands.
You have no dealer to beat, you are rewarded on the Poker value of your hand (see below). If you have increased your bet all the way through you get paid accordingly! So, the objective is to maximise your winnings and minimise your losses.
How to PlayYou will be dealt five cards in total, but first you are dealt just three. You place an initial bet before you receive your first three cards. Based on your cards you must then decide to either place another bet (Raise) or simply call (Call) for another card. Once again you can decide whether to Raise or Call for your last card.
