Game Details

3-Hand Video Ponto Poker is game that is quickly becoming a standard game found in most casinos. We have created 15 different versions of 3-Hand Video Poker, each with their own unique pay table. You can choose to play with a “COIN VALUE” of $0.05 to $5.00.

How to Play

The object of 3-Hand Video Poker is similar to Video Poker, to obtain a five-card poker hand that contain at least the lowest combination on the pay table for the version you are playing. For this explanation we will use the version “Jacks or Better” to provide examples. *But remember all 15 pay tables are different. In the case of “Jacks or Better”, the lowest paying combination is a pair of Jacks or better.

To begin select the “COIN VALUE” you wish to wager: $0.05, $0.10, $0.25, $0.50, $1, $2 or $5. Next select the number of coins you wish to bet on each of your three hands by clicking the left mouse button over the “BET ONE” button up to five times. To reduce the numbers of coins continue clicking and the wager value lowers. If you wish to bet the maximum amount of coins (five) on each of your three hands, simply click on “BET MAX” with your left mouse button. When you press the “BET MAX” button, your hand is automatically dealt. If you use the “BET ONE” button to select the number of coins you wish to wager, then you must use the “DEAL” button to start the game.

When you click “DEAL” you will receive the same five cards on all three hands. With the left mouse button click on the card(s) you wish to hold. You will see “HOLD” light up on the appropriate card and this card will be turned over and held in all three hands. You can hold from 0 - 5 cards. Once you have selected the cards you wish to “HOLD” click on the “DRAW” button. Upon clicking “DRAW” you will receive new cards for all the cards that you did not select to hold. The difference on the “DRAW” in three Hand Video Poker is you will receive different cards on each of the 3 hands.

The main idea is to better your initial hand by holding your best cards and hopefully drawing new cards that better your held cards ponto. The pay table for the poker game you are playing will be displayed beside your cards.
