> Stud Poker Ante

In comparison with traditional video poker games Pick’em Poker is a newer and unusual video poker game. What's interesting about the game is that it has more in common with stud poker than draw poker, and it has a potentially tremendous payout percentage - 99.95 percent if played with perfect strategy. Unlike other video poker games in Pick'em Poker you will be dealt 8 cards. Two of these cards are placed face up on the left and two sets of three cards 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 can’t throw away the cards on the left. You have to hold them till the end of the game. You do get to pick which of the two stacks of cards on the right you want to keep though. 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. In fact this fact determines the outcome of the game. You have to make a right choice. The hand is formed of the two cards on the left and three cards you have left on the right.
