Here I have broken down each of the top 5 poker Variations for your convenience.
No Limit Hold'em
This is by far the most commonly played poker game being played today. It has gained so much popularity that it has spawned several television games. The game starts with the posting of the blinds, after this each player receives the only 2 cards that are exclusive to them in this game. The dealer will then deal 5 cards to the center of the table and will turn the first 3 cards over. This is the first time you can really get a feel for your hand. At this point it goes back and forth between a betting round and the flipping over of a card. Once all the cards have been turned over and all the bets are in the cards are revealed and the player with the best hand wins.
Red Dog Poker:
Red Dog Poker is not technically a poker game, but it is played in the casinos poker rooms. The game is very fast paced and easy to learn which is why it is so popular. The dealer deals the player 2 cards and the player has to bet if the next card will fall between the first 2 cards. Let us say the first 2 cards are a 5 and a 9 then you are betting that the next card will be a 6, 7 or an 8. The closer the first 2 cards are the higher the payout if you are correct.
About Caribbean Stud:
Caribbean stud is not the average stud poker game. In this game each player gets 5 cards they may not look at or touch their cards till the dealer finishes dealing and turns over his top card. At this point a player can decide to stay in the game or fold. If you stay in the game your bet is doubled from the Ante. Once everyone either stays or folds all the cards are shown and everyone with a better hand then the dealer wins 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.
