Triple play machines are easy to understand and play. The machine deals you the first hand as usual. You choose which cards you would like to hold, and which ones you would like to throw away. You are then dealt three redraws.

     So, if you're holding K Q J 10 and hoping to catch an Ace or a 9 for the straight, you get three chances to land the card you're looking for. That's part of the appeal of multi-hand poker. You get more than one chance to draw the card that fills in the bigger winning hands.

     Of course it's great fun to land a winner on the first draw, so that all three of your hands are winners right out of the gate! Say you draw two pair off the deal, all three hands are winners. And better yet, you have three chances to fill in the blank and get that full house!
