How to Play Poker Pursuit (Microgaming)

Poker Pursuit is a card game in which a standard 52-card deck with no jokers is used.
The aim of this game is the similar to the goals of other types of video poker. It is necessary to collect a hand, which is paid according to the paytable. There is no dealer, so showdown is not provided. Cards can not be exchanged.
Poker Pursuit has standard poker hands: pair (starting from a ten and higher), two pairs, three of a kind, straight, flush, full house, four of a kind, straight flush and royal flush (hands are enumerated in ascending order).
The initial bet is equal to one coin whose value is selected by the player. The coin can cost from fifty cents to ten dollars at Spin Palace Casino. The maximum payout is three thousand coins (if you collect a royal flush betting three coins).
The gameplay in Poker Pursuit has the following stages:
  • The player selects the coin value and receives five cards: three face up cards and two hole ones.
  • Assessing the rank of three cards, he or she can either add one coin to the bet before the fourth card is faced up or leave it unchanged.
  • Then the fourth card is faced up and the user should make a decision selecting among the options available at the previous stage.
