The additional feature incorporated in this video poker variant is the Mystery Bonus Feature. After players will place their betting amounts during game, he is allowed to click on Draw button for dealing the cards. Before the cards in game are dealt, the Mystery Bonus Poker wheel placed on the right hand side of gaming screen will spin and then reveals a particular type of hand as Flush or Two Pair.

In Pick'em Poker, players will have to bet 2 cards at upfront and 2 stacks of 3 cards. In each of the stacks, only top cards are kept as face up, while players cannot get any idea about the position of remaining 2 cards during the game. On the basis of the face card as well as two unknown cards, players have to select any one stack in game. After this, remaining 2 cards contained in the stack are disclosed for making 5 card poker hand and payouts are given in accordance with the payout table for winning combinations to players.

If the top card of selected stack is making any winning combination with 2 dealt cards, the selection will be simple that means, players should select that particular stack or otherwise they should follow normal video poker strategy during game. The players should choose particular stack that will give highest chance of winning in game.

Both of the variants of poker powered by RTG incorporate Double or Nothing Bonus Round for players. This is one optional round, where players by selecting a card higher than card of dealer, will win the game.
