Pick 'em Poker (Double Double Bonus Poker)

Pick 'em Poker (also called Pick-a-Pair Poker) displays four cards to the player. The two cards on the left are going to be a part of the final hand. The player must then pick one of the two cards on the right. Whichever card is picked will also be a part of the final hand. The last two cards of the hand will be revealed after the selection is made. The strategy for Pick 'em Poker games is generally easier than regular video poker games. In the Double Double Bonus Poker version the starting hand is of a Pair of Nines.
