One of the new video poker variations is Pick’em Poker. Pick'em Poker is very like stud poker. But the main feature of the game is a payout, which is 99.95 percent. As you know you receive five cards in other video poker games, but in the case with Pick'em Poker you will receive 8 cards. Two of the cards are face up on the left, and then there are two stacks of three cards each on the right. After the deal you can see four cards as the top cards of the sets of cards on the right are up. You have no option to throw away the two cards on the left. Those cards are yours to keep until the end of the hand. Now you have to choose a three-card stack you want to hold or to throw away. When you select which stack you want to keep, the two cards dealt underneath the face up card are exposed, and your hand is made from the two cards on the left plus the three cards in the stack you kept. So basically, in Pick'em Poker, you're choosing one of two three card hands every round. The hand is formed of the two cards on the left and three cards you have left on the right.
