Mobile Video Poker

You're often on the go and play casino games while you're commuting to work. You play while waiting for an appointment, your next college class, or on vacation. With a video poker app, enjoy mobile video poker from anywhere you have a connection.

There are many video poker games out there. We've narrowed the list to explain the basics to a few of the most popular mobile video poker machines.

Poker Basics

Before you play any video poker game, you should understand the basics. Five cards are dealt to you after you place your bet. The value of your hand is important. Aces are usually worth the most followed by the king, queen, jack, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1. You also need to pay attention to the cards suits (clubs, diamonds, hearts, or spades).

Winning poker hands go like this (from lowest value to highest):

High card
Pair (twin matching cards)
Two Pair (two sets of two matching cards like a pair of 4s and a pair of 8s)
Three of a Kind (a trio of matching cards)
Straight (five cards in order like a 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8)
Flush (five cards in one suit)
Full House (a hand that has two matching cards plus three matching cards such as three 4s and two 5s)
Four of a Kind (a quartet of matching cards)
Straight Flush (a straight and a flush combined)
Royal Flush (a straight with a 10, jack, queen, king, and ace that are all in one suit)

Aces and Faces

In Aces and Faces, you're hoping for a hand that has at least a pair of Jacks or better. Hold cards you think will help you win and deal again. You'll win cash if you have a pair of Js or better.

Deuces Wild

Before placing real money bets, try free Deuces Wild video poker games. Our tips will help you get started, but you should play a few hands for fun to get used to the game. Deuces are 2s. They serve as wild cards in this game and can be very valuable at building winning hands. Most Deuces Wilds games require a three of a kind or higher in order to win.

Jacks or Better

Another game to try for fun first is Jacks or Better. You'll find a number of casinos offer free video poker Jacks or Better options where you can play for fun before playing for real cash. In this game, your hand requires a pair of Jacks or more before you'll win. A pair of 10s by itself won't cut it as a winning hand.

Joker Poker

Play a few hands of Joker Poker for fun before placing a bet. With this mobile video poker game, the jokers that are usually set aside become an integral part of the game. Often, you need a pair of kings or better in order to win. Jokers are wilds and can help form better hands.

Tens or Better

The other video poker game we love is Tens or Better. This game is pretty simple and easy to play, which makes it a great game for a beginner. You're dealt five cards after you place your bet. You want to get a hand that appears on the pay table. With Tens or Better, you want at least a pair cards valued at 10 or higher.
