Letter Poker
Letter Poker challenges you to make longer
words with the letters you are dealt than the
house does with its letters. You and the
house take turns betting and discarding, but
you do not see the house’s letters until the
end of the hand. The scoring is similar to
normal poker: one four-letter word is better
than a three- and two-letter word (in normal
poker four-of-a-kind is better than a full
house). The longer your word, the better
your chances of winning.
To play, type a word from your letter cards
and press ENTER. You can make two words
by typing a SPACE between them. Watch for
the dealer’s moves.
You need to know the following poker terms
before you begin to play, as they appear as
prompts on the screen.

For example, to bet press B, to raise press
R, and so on.
Bet Means you want to bet on
your hand. You can bet up to
$100.
Pass Means you’ll pass the bet to
the dealer.
Fold Means that you want to end,
and lose, the hand.
See Means you’ll match the
dealer’s bet.
Raise Means you’ll increase the
dealer’s bet. You can raise it
up to $100.
Note: To type a bet, press Q-P for numbers.
The pot starts at $1000, with a $10 ante (the
initial bet to start the hand). If you are unable
to make a word at tat time, type letters that
you are likely to use later from those you are
dealt. To erase a letter, press BACK. To
continue without typing letters, press
ENTER.
If you bet before the house does, you see a
prompt, “Pass, Bet, Fold”. If the house bets
first, you see a prompt, “See, Raise, Fold”.
You can discard up to three letters. After
discarding, you see a message showing how
many cards, if any, the house discarded. If
the hand ends in a tie, you do not lose your
money. The pot carries on to the next hand.
