Video poker first appeared in the 1970’s as a then-modern alternative to traditional poker and over the next decade, it became an essential addition to almost every land-based casino. Indeed, video poker is often compared to slots, because originally, the two are played on similar looking machines, but in fact, the two types of game have little in common.
To knowledgeable gamblers, however, it offers significantly higher odds of winning than are usually found in slot games. Video poker is a popular casino game which offers exciting and enjoyable experience to all players, regardless of their skill level.
