The round is now completed, with the Electronic Poker machine analyzing the cards to see if it matches any of the winning hands listed in the payment schedule.

It goes without saying that the payout schedule can vary from game to game, so that knowledgeable players are able to choose the most profitable game each and every time.
As soon as the first round has finished, the player can either decide to stay on in an attempt to maximize their earnings, or they can press the ‘collect’ button to retrieve any money that they may have won. Further, several versions of the game give the player a chance to increase their wins, in which situation a further round is played. There are also variations among specific games, with some decks of cards having wild cards and other varying characteristics to enhance playability.
