Video Poker Games

You can play online poker on your mobile too, just like other casino games. Most online casinos use HTML5 technology, allowing you to visit the website just as easily on your mobile as on your computer or tablet, as long as you have stable and fast internet. Many websites also have a separate mobile app for poker.

The game rules for Texas Holdem are the most common rules. In this version of poker, you as a player get two cards in your hand, which you combine with up to five cards on the table. In other poker versions such as Omaha, you get multiple cards, but choose which cards you use for the best combinations.

There are as many as dozens of different online poker variations and the most commonly played are Texas Holdem, Omaha, Caribbean Stud Poker, Seven Card Stud and video poker.

Video poker is a variation of poker that you play alone. Here you play on a kind of online slot machine, where you are dealt five cards. You choose which cards you want to keep and swap the remaining cards. For combinations with the five total cards after your choices, you get winnings.

In online poker types where you play with opponents, the maximum number of players at one table is often ten. In a poker tournament, the number of players can reach into the thousands, but you play at different tables.

The rules of play for online poker tournaments vary from tournament to tournament, but are always known in advance. As a player, you know what the small blind and big blind are, how much the buy-in is and whether you can come back later in the tournament with the same buy-in. Also, what the winner of the tournament gets is always known in advance.

The Return To Player cannot be indicated for online poker where you play against other people, but for video poker where you play against the computer, the RTP is 97-99%.

Since poker became increasingly popular in the early 1990s, there have also been a growing number of players who have achieved star status. Some of the most famous players you often see on television and at big tournaments include Daniel Negreanu (GGPoker ambassador), Phil Hellmuth, Phil Ivey, and Jennifer Harman.
