Bonus Deuces Wild Video Poker And 100 Play Joker Poker In Latest Microgaming Releases.
Top online gaming software developer Microgaming added two video poker games to its summer menu for July. Microgaming's Viper software platform adds the very advanced attributes to the major appeal of the games. In addition to autohold, the analyser tables give guidance on current odds and cover permutations to help the player make the right decision.Bonus Deuces Wild Video Poker
This innovative video poker game is already very popular among land-based casino gamblers. The cards with a value of two, or deuces, as these are better known - are wild. Any deuce can substitute for any other card of any other suit - it really is like having four Jokers in the pack, and it gives a new and very appealing twist to a great casino standard.
The Royal Flush is still the big win, winning you 5000 coins. With a max bet of 5 coins, you could win the huge jackpot of 25,000 coins. The luck doesn't stop there - with 4 Wilds in this one deck video poker game, five-of-a-kind has an increased probability of coming up and giving the Big Win.
Whenever players get one or more deuces in their final hand, Microgaming's outstanding Viper software will automatically assign it a suit and value to give them the highest possible payout. This player-friendly facility ensures that it is a lot easier, and much faster to create potentially winning hands.
The uncluttered screen layout has been developed with the video poker player front-of-mind and features large, easily read card graphics that are dealt with smooth precision from the 52 card deck. Played at 5 coins a hand, in the range 0.25 to 5.00 a time, the maximum bet is 25.00 a hand, and at that level jackpots could deliver a generous 25,000 credits.
Joker Poker 100 Play Power Poker
With razor sharp, clean and lean graphics, new Joker Poker will be popular among Video Poker fans. This multi-hand video poker game sets new levels of excitement and action in this popular genre. Up to 100 hands of video poker can be played simultaneously at a time with a wide choice of wagers. For the gambler with a good bankroll and a penchant for action this is the ideal game.
Outstanding features include generous pay tables and an Auto Hold facility that holds the mathematically superior cards in the hand, but plays them only when and if the player wishes it.
In Joker Poker every hand is dealt from a separate and independent deck of 53 cards. The extra card is a Joker and is Wild. The superior Viper software will automatically assign a suit and number to any Jokers that are dealt to give the highest possible payout.
With 1 to 5 coin wagering flexibility there is a large betting range, and on the maximum bet a hit on the 5000 coin jackpot could yield as much as 125,000. The game offers a double up gamble feature up to 3200 as an added reward. Come play with 100 hands and a Joker - you cannot go wrong.
Both new video poker games will be available at most of the Microgaming online casinos. The Jackpot Factory Group is one of the first to bring these popular land-based games online. Join one of the four online casinos from this group to play the new games.
