Enjoy Popular Video Poker Variants

When video poker first hit the scene several decades ago, there were only one or two variants of the game for players to enjoy. Today, it is possible to find a wide variety of popular video poker variants, all offering their own rules and regulations that alter the payouts and change the way the original game is played.

The most popular video poker variants stick to the same generic format (ie. deciding which cards to discard from a dealt hand of five in order to make up the best hand). However, popular video poker variants also offer the game with a twist. For example the wildly sought-after deuces wild video poker has the deuces (twos) in the game acting as wild cards and replacing any other cards to form a winning combination. In deuces wild video poker, a minimum three of a kind combination will form a winning hand.

Other popular video poker variants include games such as Jacks or Better, Aces and Faces, Jokers Wild and Tens or Better. Finally, one of the most popular video poker variants entails playing the different progressive video poker jackpot games available at online casinos today and standing in line to win millions of dollars. There is no doubt that video poker continues to be one of the most popular forms of online gambling entertainment in the industry today, a lot thanks to the wide variety of games on offer.
