You are dealt a hand of five cards. After receiving all the cards, you can then discard any or all of them. (You may keep them all if you want.) You then win or lose points according to the hand formed.
The possible hands are:
Royal flush- A, K, Q, J, 10 of one suit
Straight flush- 5 sequential cards of the same suit
4 of a kind
Full house- 3 of a kind and a pair
Flush- 5 non-sequential cards of the same suit
Straight- 5 sequential cards of different suits
3 of a kind
2 pair
Pair
High card- ex. Ace high
Click the "START" button to start the game. You can change the bet, which is by default 1, by clicking the appropriate number. Click the "DEAL" button to receive your hand. Click on the cards you want to keep, then click "DRAW". You will be shown the final hand, and your score will go up if you have a winning hand.
There is only one option in this game (sound). To bring up the options window, click in the bottom left area of the applet (where it says "Click here").
