HOW THIS GAME PLAYS
Jacks or Better is the foundation of video poker — the pay table every other variant is measured against. The full-pay "9/6" version rewards a Full House 9-for-1 and a Flush 6-for-1, which is where the name comes from.
Because the payouts are flat and every four-of-a-kind pays the same, the optimal strategy is the cleanest of any game. Master it and the holds for the bonus variants become small adjustments rather than a fresh start.
