Play Dr Wongs Jacks and Video Poker Online

Dr. Wong's Jacks and Video Poker was part of the MS-DOS Classic Games collection, a release that bundled several titles without a clear developer or publisher credited. It fits right into that era of straightforward, menu-driven games that relied on simple mechanics rather than elaborate graphics or story.

You control the cursor to select cards to hold or discard, aiming to build the strongest possible poker hand from a standard deck. The game cycles through deals quickly, with no complex animations or delays between hands. The difficulty comes from the payout structure, which demands strong hands to turn a profit, and the pacing is relentless if you choose to play for speed. It feels like a focused, almost meditative test of your patience and decision-making under repetition.

Each game uses different controls, most DOS games use the keyboard arrows. Some will use the mouse , "Alt" ,"Enter" and "Space bar".
