the player has an option to keep or exchange one or more cards for a new one from the deck of cards. After this
the video poker machine evaluates the hand. A pay schedule of winning hands is usually posted. If the hand matches one of those
then the video poker will offer a payout. A pair of jacks is usually the minimum hand when a video poker machine starts the payout.
