Aces and Eights Video Poker
Aces and Eights is a higher payout variation of the popular Jacks or Better video poker game. Of course, pay tables may vary from casino to casino, but the full pay version has a 99.78% payout percentage (assuming proper strategy) which is higher than Jacks or Better. This is because Aces and Eights treats players to higher payouts for getting Four Of A Kinds with Aces or 8's (hence the name) as well as a smaller increase for players who get four 7's. Check out the pay table below to see how this works for a full pay Aces and Eights video poker game.

It's very easy to learn how to play Aces and Eights. Just like draw poker, you start with a full hand and decide which cards you want to keep. To do this in online Aces and Eights, just click on the cards you want to hold. Once you click the draw button, the other cards will automatically be discarded and you will receive random replacements. You can choose to draw no card, all five cards, or anything in between.
After this one draw, your hand is complete and you can use the pay table shown above to determine whether you win or not, and how valuable your hand is. Payouts are based on the number of coins you use and, of course, the value of those coins. You can change these factors at any point in the game, but it's statistically a smart idea to play with as many coins as possible to take advantage of the best payouts in the game.
