How to Play Jacks or Better?

Once you are ready to place an initial wager with your credits, just press the deal button. Five cards will appear on the computer screen and your task is to create the best possible hand.

However, if you want to receive a payout, you will also need to have a pair of jacks or better.

As soon as you receive the first five cards, you can hold some of them. It means that when you click on the deal button for the second time, they will remain the same.
