Pick'Em Poker
PICK'EM POKER SCREENSHOT  |
Pick'Em Poker is a special type of video poker game. This game deals out 2 single cards starting from the left and then 2 sets of cards each containing 3 cards.
You must choose between these two sets of 3 cards, picking the one that will offer you the best hand based on the card on top of the set and the 2 cards on the left.
However, you can unveil the other 2 cards underneath the top card only after the choice has been made. Once you select the set, press Draw and the other cards beneath are revealed making a poker hand. Ultimately, the other 3-card set is discarded.
