At Mummys Gold Casino we are such big fans of Video Poker that we’d go as far as saying that no casino session is complete without playing a few rounds. Joker Poker is among our most popular variations, and when you’re in the mood for a few extra thrills there’s nothing like playing a Multi Hand edition!
We offer a few different Multi Hand Joker Poker Video Poker games at Mummys Gold, and the 50 Hand version is 50 times as exciting and 5 times as lucrative as the Single Hand game! It doesn’t require anything more from you in terms of strategy, but it does give a whole lot more to you in terms of thrills.
Joker Poker 101
Since Joker Poker follows the same rules, no matter how many hands are played, it’s important that you understand the basics before you get started on the 50 Hand version. The game has the same structure and objective that every edition of Video Poker does, with the point being to create the best hand of 5 cards that you can, according to standard Poker ranking. In the Joker Poker version of the game, the lowest-paying hand is a Pair of Kings.
To begin with, you’ll place a bet of up to 5 coins and will then be dealt 5 cards. You can hold or exchange as many as you wish to in a single turn, and your payout will be based on the final cards that are in your hand and whatever your initial wager was. The best way to decide this is to consult Strategy Charts that tell you what to do for every possible card combination. Joker Poker’s twist is that you play with a 53-card deck that includes a Joker, which acts as a Wild Card. This improves your chances of winning, which is never a bad thing!
Playing 5 Hand Joker Poker
The 50 Hand version of Joker Poker is essentially the Single Hand version, multiplied 50 times. You lace a blanket wager, so that you are betting the same amount on all 50 hands, and each of the 50 hands displays exactly the same cards.
At the bottom of the screen is a larger set of 5 cards, the same as all the other sets, and it is with this master hand that you will set the cards that you want to hold. This will then be reflected on all 5 of the active hands on your screen.
Once everything is in place, all that’s left is to click the Deal button. Every hand is dealt cards from its own separate deck, and payouts are calculated individually according to what each hand ultimately displays. You stand to win 50 times over, so try your luck today!
