Here I have broken down each of the top 5 poker Variations for your convenience.
Texas Holdem:
Of all the poker versions played in casinos today Texas Holdem Poker is the most popular in history. The game is played using communal cards. The dealer deals 2 cards to each player. These 2 cards are exclusive to each player. The dealer will them deal 5 cards face down on the table. During the first round3 cards will be flipped over, then after each of the next two rounds, one card will be flipped per round. You can use any of the 7 cards available to make a 5 card poker hand. Between the rounds players do their betting.
Playing Red Dog:
Red dog is not really a poker game, because it in no way utilizes poker hands and rankings. This is more like a price is right game. The game is started with the dealer dealing each player 2 cards face up. The lower value card is placed on the left and the higher one on the right, you may now bet on if the next card will fall between the 2 other cards. An example would be you are dealt a 2 and a 7 you have to bet on if the next ward will be a 3, 4, 5, or a 6. The closer the first 2 cards are in value the higher the payout if it falls in between.
Caribbean Stud Poker:
In Caribbean Stud Poker the player only has the option to play or fold. The dealer deals the player and himself 5 cards. The dealer will turn over 1 of his cards then the player may look at their hand. If they decide to play the hand the bet is automatically raised. The dealer will then turn over his card and whoever has the best hand wins. In this poker variation players play only against the dealer and not the other players like in blackjack.
Three Card Poker:
Three Card Poker is fun because of the ease and speed of the game. The dealer will deal each player 3 cards, and the object of the game is to make the best 3 card hand that you can. You can also bet on what is called Pair Plus. This means if you get at least a pair you can win this bet. Just like in Caribbean stud you are playing against the casinos dealer and not the other players at the table. This makes it possible for there to be more then one winner per round.
5 Card Draw:
This is what is referred to as classic poker. In this poker game each player will put in his ante at the beginning of the round, and then the dealer will deal out 5 cards to each player. After receiving your 5 cards you may look at them, but be careful not to let other players see them. Now there is a round of betting. At this point you may now replace any of the 5 cards in your hand. After each player has had a chance to discard and redraw their hands another betting round begins. At this point the remaining players will have a showdown each player will lay out his hand and the lucky player with the best hand wins the pot.
Now that you know the different games you are ready to try your luck in any casino poker room.
