How to play CFSPoker.

CFSPoker was designed to be played with either the mouse, the keyboard, or both - in any combination. Experienced computer users will probably prefer the mouse whereas video poker aficionados will find the keyboard functions serve the same function as the buttons on a video poker machine. When CFSPoker is installed on OS/2 Warp Version 4 with Voice Type, spoken navigational commands can be used to replace both the keyboard and the mouse.

Play begins by wagering from one to five units (coins in a casino).

Pressing the Bet 1 Unit pushbutton advances the number of units bet by one, until it reaches five, at which time the hand is automatically dealt. To begin playing the hand with less than five units, the Deal / Draw pushbutton must be used to deal the hand.

Pressing the Bet Max Units pushbutton results in a wager of five units along with a hand being dealt without any further player intervention.    

Note:  

Clicking Mouse button 2 with the mouse pointer positioned on any of the five card images has the same effect as clicking on the pushbutton that has the focus.

Similarly, pressing the <Enter> key or the space bar has the same effect as clicking on the pushbutton that has the focus.

Clicking on any of the five card images causes the hold indicator for that card to be toggled (off to on, or on to off). The <1> through <5> keys on the keyboard serve the same function as clicking on the five card images respectively. Pressing the <1> key would result in the first of the five cards being designated as a card to be held. Pressing the <1> key again would remove the hold indicator.

The Deal / Draw pushbutton is then selected to draw the replacement cards.
