Play Five Aces Game Online

Five Aces is an unusual variation of video poker that is played with a deck of 53 cards. This deck consists of traditional 52 cards and a special Ace that makes this variation of video poker possible. Such a small addition to a deck of cards makes Five Aces an exciting game with increased possibilities of having big payouts and high winning combinations.

What Is That Mysterious Fifth Ace?

Many players consider this fifth Ace a Wild card, but it is not. Unlike Joker Poker, this card cannot substitute any card to form a winning combination. Nonetheless, it can create such hands as a pair of Aces, two pairs with one pair being AA, three-of-a-kind, straight, four-of-a-kind, and five-of-a-kind.

To make this mysterious fifth Ace stand out from other cards, it carries a star instead of a traditional card suit.

How to Play Five Aces?

The process of playing Five Aces does not differ much from any other video poker game. Players should:

• Make a bet.
• Get a hand that consists of five cards.
• Exchange a card to improve the hand or leave everything as it is.
• Receive payouts if there are any.

What about Odds and Combinations?

The list of combinations is very similar to that in classic Jacks and Better, but there is one more important combination. This is Five Aces. It pays the most, as players can get 1200:1 if their hand results in Five Aces.

Other payouts are as follows:

• Royal flush and Straight flush pay 800:1 and 100:1 respectively.
• Different combinations of the four-of-a-kind offer anywhere between 50:1 and 400:1.
• Full house is worth 9:1.
• Flush and Straight give 6:1 and 4:1 respectively.
• Two pairs or a pair of Aces are worth 1:1.

What about the RTP?

This variant of video poker, as well as many other variants, has a high RTP that is close to 100%. However, it is not that simple, as any online casino has a house advantage, so such a high RTP cannot guarantee players that all their hands will be winning.
