01 / The poker guide

A little knowledge. A better first hand.

Video poker is a casino game built around poker hands. You choose which cards to hold and draw replacements; the paytable determines the return for a winning hand. Check the current SilverSands lobby for available variants.

01

Video poker is not a poker room

Do not assume a casino poker game includes player-versus-player tables, tournaments or a live poker lobby. This guide does not advertise tournament schedules, rake rates or a particular poker variant. Read the game description in the casino before you begin.

02

Read the paytable first

Look at the hand rankings, qualifying hands and payouts for your selected stake. Different versions can use different rules. A familiar poker hand does not necessarily pay the same across games.

03

A bonus changes the calculation

Under the supplied SIGNUP200 terms, video poker and blackjack contribute 50% toward the 30× wagering on the bonus. This contribution is not a payout rate. Check game exclusions, stake restrictions and the full terms in the casino. Do not assume SSFR400 can be used on every poker game.

04

Decide what you can afford to lose

Choose a money limit and a time limit before playing. Avoid increasing your stake to recover losses. Poker knowledge does not remove the risk of losing money.
