The Video Poker games are quite new to casinos, dating from the mid 70's. Since then the games became extremly popular among casinators being present in all brick and mortar or online casinos. The basic rules that apply to all videpoker games are quite simple. The player sets the bet size and deals five cards. Then he has the option to discard the undesired cards and get his final hand. The goal is to have a strong poker hand. Good hands like full houses or flushes will pay consistently, while a pair of jacks will barely cover the bet amount.

 

There are plenty variations of videopoker games in terms of paying structure, the possibility of doubling the winnings, use of jockers, special bonuses and graphics. The most common video poker games that will be found in any casino are: "Jacks or better", "Tens or better", "Deuces wild", "Bonus poker", "All American" and "Joker Wild". There are also many other particular video poker games at each casino.
