Kings of the Decks Videopoker
Betting on Kings of the Decks Videopoker is
extremely popular because it is easy and quick to play
but still contains an element of strategy.
The "King of the Decks"
game is what's known as "Five-Deck Frenzy"
in the real world, except they have left out an entire
class of payouts on the game! Five-Deck Frenzy is
played with 5 decks, so each display card in the game
has its own deck.
As a consequence, it's possible to get 5-of-a-kind
which is suited; it's also possible to get a suited
full-house, 4K, trips, etc. On the
'real' game, those pay a bonus, but here they don't,
so the result is the payout you see. Some
casinos offer a progressive jackpot on the $1 and $5
game which requires 5 Kings of Clubs to collect. The
coin denominations you wish to play are 25c, 50c, $1,
$2, or $5.
To begin you choose what denomination of coins you
wish to use, ranging from 5 cents to $5. You then
deposit coins into the machine and bet up to five
coins on the hand.
Once the cards are dealt you may select which cards to
keep or "hold", and the remaining cards are
replaced in the second deal.After the second deal you
are paid out based on the rank of the resulting poker
hand.
King of the decks deals from 5 52-card decks. As
a result there is a much higher probability of drawing
matching cards, and you can achieve 5 of a kind!
The minimum payout hand is two pairs. If you can
collect 5 kings of clubs on 5 coins you win the
progressive jackpot!
