+  Video Poker — five cabinet types
+
+  The lounge east of Penny Reels has Classic Video Poker, Ultimate X Single
+  Line, Ultimate X Multi-Hand, Super Times Pay and Hot Roll. Each has one seat.
+  play lists cabinets; play <id> seats you. game lists its supported games.
+  game jacks selects Jacks or Better. Other short names: bonus, deluxe,
+  double, ddb, deuces, joker. Full game names and underscore names also work.
+  Not every feature supports every game. Joker Poker is Kings or Better.
+
+  payout low|normal|full sets the cabinet-wide pay quality for ALL its games.
+  These select published schedules, not different games or guaranteed RTPs.
+  paytable shows the selected game, schedule and exact coin payouts.
+  hands lists supported counts; hands <count> selects one between rounds.
+  Classic Jacks supports 1/3/5/10/25/50/100 hands; other classic games use 1.
+  Ultimate X Single uses 1, Ultimate X Multi and Hot Roll 3/5/10,
+  and Super Times Pay 1/3/5/10. Larger games use smaller card art.
+
+  denom 1|10|50 (or denomination) sets credits per coin.
+  bet 1-4 ADDS coins, capped at five per hand; bet max loads five.
+  Bare bet repeats your previous selection, or five initially, without
+  reprinting the pay table. Explicit bets reprint it with a red coin column.
+  Loading coins does not charge money or reveal cards. deal pays and deals.
+
+  Type 531, 1 3 5, or hold 531 to TOGGLE those cards. Type a number again
+  to release it. Repeated digits in one command toggle only once.
+  There is no hold none command. draw or d replaces unheld cards once;
+  away from video poker, d still means down. HELD labels are bold yellow.
+  Each line draws from its own remaining deck, excluding all original cards.
+  Wins appear below cards in bold yellow; no win appears in bold white.
+
+  feature on|off switches bonuses between rounds. ON requires five base
+  coins per hand. Ultimate X and Hot Roll add five coins (10 total);
+  Super Times Pay adds one (6 total). Fees do not increase base payouts.
+  Ultimate X multipliers belong to the MACHINE: the next player inherits
+  them at the same game, payout tier, denomination and hand count. Feature
+  OFF can collect them but earns no new ones. Other bonuses have no carryover.
+
+  Payouts are total coins including stake, not profit. Multiply by denomination
+  for credits. Natural royals pay 250/500/750/1000 coins for 1-4 base coins,
+  or 4000 at five. Only the highest-paying category wins on each line.
+  look redisplays your hand; rules opens the cabinet guide; table rules shows
+  the pay table. stop leaves between hands. Disconnect finishes current holds.
+  If payment fails, draw retries the SAME final hands, never a fresh draw.
