One of reasons video poker is so popular is that with the correct strategy, a player can minimise his/her losses and get a payout return often in excess of 98%. Most video poker games will follow standard poker hand rankings which can be found here. Many video poker variations will also offer a double-up feature in which the player, on winning a hand, has the option to double their winnings usually on the choice of a red or black card (50/50 choice)

The most popular variation for video poker at online casinos is Jacks or Better which will payout a all hands with at least a pair of Jacks or higher. Another popular game variation is Joker Poker, which plays with a 53-card pack - including the Joker - and Deuces Wild in which the deuce (or '2') is a wild card The important thing to look out for is which hands are paid out and the payout odds. This will often determine your choice of game.
