Video poker game with player hand disqualification

摘要

A method of playing a five card draw video poker wagering game on a gaming device comprising at least a processer, input device and video monitor screen is disclosed. The method comprises providing bonus features in video poker games without requiring an extra wager in addition to a base wager, without lowering the paytable, and basing the paytable on the total wager. In lieu of an extra wager, a predetermined set of dealt hands is automatically disqualified, effectively ending the game and forfeiting the wager. All dealt hands that are not disqualified are qualified hands. The player is eligible to receive at least one randomly-provided bonus feature or guaranteed bonus feature on every qualified hand.
