Video Poker Facts

 

People who enjoy playing traditional poker and online slots often enjoy another very popular game called video poker. These video poker facts are both interesting and helpful to anyone who may be considering playing this well-loved game.

About Video Poker

Video poker is a combination of two of the world's favorite casino games--poker and slots. Video poker is available in both land-based casinos and online, but the quality of gameplay and graphics varies greatly in both instances. This game is often considered a wonderful outlet for people who do not enjoy traditional casino games like roulette, blackjack and slots. Like slots, players are able to determine how many paylines to place bets upon and they are paid out according to a predetermined table. Random number generators are the hub of these machines, so players can hit a jackpot any time.

Little Known Video Poker Facts

Very few people are aware of the total number of card combinations in a traditional 52-card video poker game. This number is an astronomical 2,598,960! Chances are, any player will strike one or more of these winning combinations during a gaming session. Something else to consider is that while many video poker online games have a maximum bet of five coins, other games may allow maximum bets of up to 90 coins. This means that players should use caution when hitting the 'max bet' button and make sure that they are well within their limits beforehand.

People who enjoy the unusual combination of poker and slots flock to video poker games all over the world. These video poker facts may help others understand the intrigue behind the game as well.
