Variants

Since video poker became one of the more popular casino games online, the number of video poker variants that are availbel to play has mushroomed to over 50. With so much choice, which is the best game for you? Well, read our summary below, and go into our detailed pages on each of the games, and you´ll be able to make an informed choice.

The average payout is obviously a good starting point when choosing a video poker game. Most video poker pays out very well compared to other games like slots and roulette (that´s why we like video poker so much!) If you are playing with a small budget, we wouldn´t get too hung up on the Pay Out percentages as it probably won´t affect you that much. But high stakes players and high rollers should do their research.

The standard  game is Jacks or Better. It´s often good to switch your game to keep things interersting. 

But remember, that the optimum strategy will vary by the game, so make sure you do your homework before you wade in and bet for real.

Our advice is to stick to a relatively small number of variants (say 3-5) and then you can concentrate on becoming a strategy expert at those games. Although most casinos these days offer an auto strategy option (where the casino recommends the best move), we think it pays to know the best startegy yourself as well just to double check 8plus it´s more fun this way).

Payout ratios for video poker are generally between a generous 98.5 % and 99.5%.

Also bear in mind that  differentonline gaming software platforms will have different payout tables for the same video poker games. you can´t necessarily assume that the payout is going to be the same. So if you switch casinos, do the numbers as well.

One of our favourite software programs for players who live outside of the United States is Microgaming.

Their payouts are as follows:
Aces and Eights – 98.7%
All American Poker - 98.5%
Bonus Poker – 99.2%
Deuces and Joker – 98.5%
Double Bonus Poker – 99.1%
Jacks or Better – 99.5%
Tens or Better – 99.1%

So top games on Microgaming video poker are Bonus Poker, Double Bonus Poker, Jacks or Better and Tens or Better. As a general rule, if you are not sure, stick with Jacks or Better.
