Poker Card Game - Free Brain Game

Playing card games like Poker is a great way to improve memory and concentration. The better you understand and remember card combinations, the better you will do.

This version of Poker, also known as "Jacks or Better", is one of the most popular casino card games. This game is just for fun, no real money involved. You play against the computer (the dealer) one-on-one. The goal is to get a pair of Jacks or better to win.

HOW TO PLAY. You start with a $1,000 credit. To begin playing, click the red "1" or "5" button to place your bet. Max bet is $5.

Next, click the red "Deal" button to deal the cards. The dealer deals you five cards face up. Click each card that you want to keep to "hold" the card. Now click the red "Draw" button to have the dealer give you new cards for the ones you did not hold.
