> Virtual Stud Poker Jackpot

One of the new video poker variations is Pick’em Poker. 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. Instead of receiving five cards like you would normally receive in most other video poker games, you receive eight cards. Two of these cards are placed face up on the left and two sets of three cards on the right. The upper cards of the two sets of cards on the right are face up. You can’t throw away the cards on the left. These cards can’t be thrown away during the game. 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. In fact this fact determines the outcome of the game. You have to make a right choice. Two cards on the left and a stack of three cards you have left on the right form a hand.
