Video poker is a digital version of poker that is played on a personal computer or smartphone. It is a game of skill and strategy that combines the elements of traditional poker with slots. The goal of the game is to draw the best hand possible from the five cards that are dealt. The player then looks at the card they were dealt and decides if they want to discard any of the cards, after which they will be dealt a new card in place of the card they discarded. The final hand will then be evaluated for its strength in comparison to the pay table rules.
