Video Poker Games: Which One to Choose?

Published: 23rd February 2020 15:47

 

Since ancient times, card games have been a popular entertainment in the elite circle. Since a player can significantly influence the outcome in poker, it not merely gained the status of truly intellectual entertainment but also obtained a reputation as one of the gambling games that brings the best results.

The player can achieve even better results playing video poker rather than its classic counterpart thanks to latest add-ons that make it possible to win more, more often and more easily. The virtual version of poker completely eliminates the human factor, so the player can focus on the game itself and succeed in the draws by developing the right course of action. 

 Online poker vs. video poker


Novice players often confuse online poker with video poker games. So, what is online poker? This is a poker game between players in any online room. This means that your opponents will be the same players as you.

Video poker, on the other hand, is a game in an online casino which is played against a computer and not other players. As you can see, these are basically two distinct games in which players play on platforms that are not the same. These two games have many other differences, but these are the most fundamental.

Video poker game variations

In recent years, many variations of video poker have appeared in online casinos. Perhaps, online poker is even more diverse than its offline version. The main types of video poker games:

  • Jacks or Better. In this version, winning combinations begin with a pair of jacks. This poker game is simple to learn, so it is a great choice for new players.
  •  

  • Deuces Wild. Deuces are Wild Symbols that will replace other cards to win. Players have a better chance to make a big hand like a Four of a Kind or a Wild Royal Flush than in the non-wild card games, so the game gets really exciting.
  •  

  • All American. This is a game of draw poker. Straight-flush pays higher than in other variations (200 bets versus 13-50).
  •   

  • Tens or Better is similar to Jacks or Better. Players need combinations of at least a pair of tens in order to win a payout.
  •  

  • Aces and Faces. A five card hand means you win big. There are different payments for four of a kind, the most advantageous combination is four aces. Players can also double their winnings.

How to choose a video poker game

 

Naturally, the question arises: which of these variations should be preferred? We will try to answer this question, starting from the reasons that make you play in the casino.

The payout percentage in most video poker games differs very little. From this, we can conclude that casino visitors who play mainly for their own entertainment with small financial investments should not bother searching for a most profitable option. We can say that all this variety was created specifically for them, so they would not get bored. Therefore, as soon as you get tired of Deuces Wild or Jacks or Better, you can safely switch to another game.

However, players should not forget that video poker implies that players make decisions that directly affect the outcome. Therefore, there is a share of strategies. This is the difference between poker and other games in which a player only needs to make a bet, and the rest is decided by luck.

 

 If a video poker player constantly makes wrong decisions, his chances of winning are drastically reduced. Of course, he can accidentally get a winning combination, but such pleasant surprises are extremely rare. Therefore, without following a strategy, for example, a Deuces Wild strategy, it is impossible to have at least relatively regular wins.

If you want to play numerous video poker types, you will have to study a large number strategies. Otherwise, you are forever doomed to lose your money. Therefore, it is recommended that video poker fans who play not only for a pleasant pastime choose only a couple of varieties of this beautiful game and improve in them.

If a significant amount of money is involved, it is better to choose a game in which the payout percentage is maximum. After that, master a basic strategy of the game to the smallest detail and do not skip an option to practice it for free. Video poker is a great choice for any online player. Players will enjoy the game and be able to control their fate with each hand.
