Poker is the best of all the casino games available in the online casinos.
It is, in fact, the only game which is played with other players in the
casino and is not played against the house. The game can take as many
players as you like. The more, the better; since this way the lot rises to a
great degree which works in everyone’s favor. There are many variants of the
game and online casinos make sure to provide all the variants of the game to
you.
Texas Holdem poker is the most primitive variant of the game. It is the
simplest form of poker. The players get two hole cards and three community
cards later on to make a strong poker rank hand of five cards. The show of
cards is followed by the betting rounds in which all the players have to
participate. The final lot after the show of all the community cards goes to
the player who has the highest poker rank hand.
In the Omaha variant, there is distribution of a total of seven cards. The
players get four cards in one go and later on the remaining three cards one
by one. The show of the cards is followed by betting rounds and the player
with the highest poker rank of five cards from these seven cards wins.
In seven card stud variant, you are again required to make a hand of five
cards from seven cards which are distributed at once and the players have an
option to replace the useless cards with certain new cards. In the five card
draw variant, the players are distributed five faced down cards and the bets
are made over these. The player with the strongest hand wins the lot.
Razz poker is the only variant of poker in which the strongest hand is not
valued. The player with the weakest hand of seven cards takes away the lot.
The Caribbean stud poker is also the only game which is known for the
progressive jackpot. The winner takes away the lot but the next player in
the series also gets decided percentage of the lot. Therefore, in this
variant, the winner is not the only one to get rewarded.
