Abstract:
A presentation of cards in a video poker game is implemented in a way that makes the game more exciting and fun for players. A randomly dealt hand is ordered and ranked with respect to straights, flushes, combination of straights and flushes, and of-a-kind hands. The ranking of a hand determines how each card in the hand is presented to the player with respect to timing and audio between revealing each card. Depending on the hand, the time interval between revealing the second and third cards may be longer than the interval between the first two cards. The time interval between revealing the third and fourth cards may be longer than the previous interval. The interval for the last card may be the longest depending on the hand ranking. The timing is determined by software on the gaming machine or device and is intended to increase excitement for the player.

Claim (Index 1):
