WILD ROYALS

🎯 OBJECTIVE

Build the best 5-card poker hand to win credits. The better your hand, the higher your payout! Reach 10,000 credits to win the game.

🃏 HOW TO PLAY

1. Set your bet: Use +10 or +100 buttons to choose how much to wager (max 1000). Use RESET to start over.
2. Deal cards: Press DEAL to receive 5 random cards.
3. Choose what to keep: Click on cards (or their HOLD buttons) to keep them. Held cards glow gold.
4. Draw new cards: Press DRAW to replace cards you didn't hold. You have multiple draws per round!
5. Win or try again: If your final hand matches a winning combination (see pay table), you win! You can then DOUBLE your prize or COLLECT it safely.

🎰 DOUBLE OR NOTHING

After winning, you can risk your prize to double it! A dealer card is revealed - pick a card that beats it. Higher card wins, lower loses, tie = retry. You can double up to 3 times in a row!

🃏 THE JOKER

This game includes one JOKER that acts as a wild card - it automatically becomes whatever card makes your hand the strongest! When dealt, it's automatically held for you.

📊 EXPECTED RETURN

The EXP. RETURN display shows your statistical chance of profit based on held cards. Green (100%+) = profitable, Yellow = moderate risk, Orange = low odds.

👑 QUEEN'S FAVOR

Win 3 hands in a row and the Queen grants you her favor! A video plays, then 5 cards appear. The first card reveals a suit (♥♦♣♠) - pick another card to match it. If you match the suit, your next 3 winning hands pay DOUBLE (x2)!

🌟 GOLDEN CARD

Win 2 hands in a row with the same type (e.g., two Flushes) and you'll earn a Golden Card! This special card appears in the top-left corner and will be automatically added to your next hand, boosting your chances for an even better combination.

📈 COMEBACK BONUS

Lost several hands in a row? Don't give up! After 3 consecutive losses, you start building a comeback multiplier. The more you lose, the bigger the bonus on your next win (up to x2.0)!

👎 KING'S DISGUST

End a round with no face cards (only 2-10, no J/Q/K/A/Joker) and you'll anger the King! A video plays, then 2 cards appear face-down: the King of Spades and the Joker. Pick one:

• 🃏 Joker: The Jester entertains the King - you're saved!
• ♠ King: The King taxes you 1% of your credits

Tip: Always try to keep at least one face card in your hand!
