What Is Joker Poker?

Joker Poker — sometimes called Joker's Wild — is a video poker variant played with a standard 53-card deck: the usual 52 cards plus one Joker that acts as a wild card. That single wild card changes everything. The Joker can substitute for any card to complete a winning hand, which means you'll land strong combinations far more often than in standard Jacks or Better.

At bg77, Joker Poker runs on a certified Random Number Generator (RNG) audited for fairness. Every hand dealt is completely independent — no streaks, no hot or cold machines, just pure probability. The theoretical RTP on a full-pay Joker Poker machine reaches up to 100.64% with perfect play, making it one of the best-value casino games available anywhere in the Philippines.

The game is a favourite among players from Manila to Cebu to Davao who appreciate that skill actually matters here. Unlike slots where you just spin and hope, Joker Poker rewards players who study the pay table and apply optimal hold strategy. Deposit via GCash or PayMaya, choose your coin size, and start playing within seconds on any device.

Winning Strategy Guide

1
Always Play Maximum Coins

The Natural Royal Flush pays 800× per coin at 1 coin but jumps to 4,000× total at max 5 coins. Never leave that bonus on the table — always play the max bet on bg77's Joker Poker tables.

2
Prioritize the Joker

When you're dealt the Joker, never discard it — ever. Build your strategy around it. Assess which combination the Joker completes most profitably based on your remaining four cards.

3
Hold Four to a Royal Flush

If you hold four cards to a Natural Royal Flush, always draw the fifth — even if it means breaking an existing flush or straight. The payout potential is simply too large to ignore.

4
Two Pair Is the Minimum — Don't Chase Below It

Unlike Jacks or Better, a single pair does not pay in Joker Poker. This means you should be more aggressive in drawing for stronger hands rather than protecting a lone pair.

5
Study the Pay Table First

Not all Joker Poker machines at different sites pay the same. At bg77, the pay table is displayed clearly before every session. Confirm you're on a full-pay machine to get the best RTP.
