Jacks or Better Draw Poker is a live casino game inspired by classic video poker, played with one standard 52-card deck. The goal of Poker Dro is to assemble the best five-card poker hand. You can discard any or all of the five starting cards and receive new cards to replace the discarded cards. The final five-card hand is paid according to the payout table.

To play, select your bet size and place it on the “PLAY” betting spot when the bet timer starts. Your total bet will be displayed in the “Total Bet” field. Once the countdown on the timer is over, the dealer will deal you the five starting cards in the open.
A decision time will then begin, during which you must choose which cards to keep. You can keep or discard any number of cards, from zero to five. Click/tap on the cards to select the ones you want to keep. To deselect, click/tap again.
Once the countdown on the timer ends, all unselected cards will be reset and the dealer will deal five additional cards. Any cards you choose to discard will automatically be replaced with new cards. For example, if you choose to discard three cards from your initial hand, the first three extra cards dealt will replace the cards you discarded.
Your final five-card hand is paid according to the payout table. Your initial bet is included in the payout.
