Jacks or Better works like a standard video poker machine. You start with five cards dealt from a shuffled deck. You then decide which cards to keep and which ones to replace. After you make your choices, the game deals new cards to fill your hand. If your final hand matches one of the winning combinations on the paytable, you get paid. The lowest winning hand is a pair of jacks. Higher-ranking hands pay more money. You can adjust your bet size before each round, and the game tracks your wins and losses as you play.
The RTP sits at 99.54%, and the max win goes up to 800x your bet. Low volatility means a good balance of regular wins and bigger payouts.
