‘Double Playoff Round' - an Online Video Poker Plus

When playing Draw Poker and you have won your hand you have the option to double your money in a Second round known as "Double Playoff Round." Simply click on "Collect" to get your winnings if you don't wish to take part in this.

The way it works is the machine's cards are face down, and the machine then turns over one card. You then place your bet on whether the next card is greater or lower than the original card that the machine turned over.

If the card is higher than the first card you have won that hand and your money is doubled. If it is lower then you lose your money, but if it is the same value card nobody wins or loses that hand. In order to double your bet in the Double Playoff Round, you have to click the "Double" button.

Four of a Kind: 4 cards with the same value.
