About Jacks or Better

This is the classic variant of the game without Jokers. Clicking the “Start” button deals the cards. The player must decide which cards he wants to keep. While he is selecting the cards, the probability of the hands possible is displayed as a percentage. The unwanted cards are then discarded and replaced by new cards from the deck by clicking on “Exchange”. If the player does not achieve a win, the game resets.

 
Jacks or Better
 

Clicking the ‘Deal’ button deals 5 open cards. With a little luck a winning hand is achieved. If not, the player has to decide whether he/she will swap particular cards for cards from the remaining set of cards or whether he/she wants to start afresh with 5 new cards. The swap function can only be used once per round. A hint concerning the selection of cards is shown to aid the player. While he/she is selecting the cards, the probability of the hands possible is displayed as a percentage. Depending on the degree of probability the percentage shown will be rounded up one or two decimal places, or not at all, whereby ‘0.00%’ represents a probability of lower than 0.01%, but higher than 0%. If a hand is not possible with the current cards, a ‘-‘ is shown next to that hand

The unwanted cards are then discarded and replaced by new cards from the deck by clicking on ‘Draw’. If the player does not achieve a win, the game resets.

Jacks or Better jackpot

If a player receives a Royal Flush (without a Joker) when the deal is made – a so-called Direct Royal Flush – he wins the Jackpot. The term Direct Royal Flush defines the well-known combination when achieved without exchanging cards. The Jackpot is calculated based on the stake placed. Clicking “Take” will see the amount credited to the gaming account.
