Welcome to Joker Wild!

Joker Wild is played with a 53-card deck, the regular 52-card deck plus a joker. Joker Wild follows conventional poker rules concerning how hands are formed, with one exception: A joker is a "wild" card, which means that it is counted as the most favourable card when used to complete a winning hand. For example the joker can be used to complete a straight or a flush, to improve a three of a kind to a four of a kind etc.

Special Hands

Apart from the regular hands (two pair, three of a kind, straight, flush, full house, four of a kind, straight flush) there are some special hands in Joker Wild:

• 5 of a Kind. All five cards are the same value, with jokers used to complete it.
• Royal Straight Flush. A royal straight flush with a joker used to complete it.
• Natural Royal Flush. Royal straight flush without using any joker.
• Kings or Better. A pair of kings or aces, or king or ace completed with a joker.

How to play

Click BET LEVEL to set your bet between 1 to 5 coins. The highlighted paytable column corresponds to your bet. You can also change the coin value by clicking on the up and down arrows by the Coin Value display to the right of the game buttons.

Click DEAL to deal the first hand. Cards that are part of a winning hand are automatically held. To select or clear cards to hold, you can either click the cards, or the corresponding hold button, or corresponding numbers [1-5] on the keyboard. The text HELD will appear over the cards that you have selected. Once you have chosen the cards you would like to hold, click DRAW to deal the second hand. Winnings are determined by your final hand and are listed in the WIN display to the left of the game buttons.

Gamble

Every time you get a winning hand, you have the opportunity to bet your winnings in a Double Up game. The Double Up feature can be enabled by clicking GAMBLE. By clicking COLLECT you collect your winnings and go on to the next round.
In the tools menu you can also choose to either start double up automatically every time you get a win or disable the double up feature.

On a new screen, a single card is shown, face down. You can choose to either:

• Guess the card's colour: Click on either the red or black button to the left of the card or
• Guess the suit of the card: Click on one of the four suit buttons to the right of the card.

You can keep doubling as long as you keep winning. Or if you prefer, you can click COLLECT to stop and return to the main game.

Please note that a new deck is used for each card drawn.
