Casino Poker GameCasino poker comes in many different forms. In a land-based casino, you can choose from conventional poker games such as Texas Hold'em or Omaha Poker against live opponents, but "casino poker games" are played against the house. Although the casino usually has a "house edge," they compensate by offering lucrative jackpots and side bets that can be made during games. For example, a straight flush in Three Card Poker usually pays 40 to 1.

At Poker Websites, we have sections devoted to each casino poker game as well as the best internet casinos where you can play casino poker games online.

Why Play Casino Poker Games?

There is a LOT of skil involved in being a winning poker playes when playing traditional poker against live opponents online or in a casino. It can take years to learn enough poker strategy to have a good chance at winning.

However, when playing casino poker games, you can sit down, learn the basic rules and be a big winner your first time playing. The rules and strategies to poker casino games are generally much simpler than multi-player poker games.

Casino Poker Game Odds

Of the casino poker games we list on this site, every one has a negative expectation.* That means that no matter how well you play, you will lose money in the long run. Not all casino poker games have the same odds of winning and losing though. If you play by the book, meaning that you play the game with perfect strategy, you have the following odds to win:

*Video poker is the exception. Some machines with favorable odds can be beatable.

Odds (Good to Bad)

  • Video Poker - between 100.77% and 99.46% depending on game.
  • Caribbean Stud Poker - between 97.45% (perfect strategy) and 94.78% (no strategy).
  • Pai Gow Poker - 97.34% for perfect strategy
  • Let It Ride Poker - between 97.04% and 96.26% depending on pay tables.
  • Three Card Poker -between 96.63% and 89.35% depending on pay tables and whether you place a bonus bet.

As you can see above, the best odds (and only game you can expect to win at) are for Video Poker. The variation that yields the best return is "full pay" Dueces Wild while playing with a perfect strategy.

The worst odds for a casino poker game is Three Card Poker. If you wager the same amount on both the "pairplus" and "bonus" bets, you are expected to lose 10.65% of every dollar that you bet. Stay away from this one! If you only play pairplus while playing a perfect strategy, you will only lose 3.37% of every dollar you wager.

If you are wondering what I mean by "perfect strategy" then check out Wizard of Odds to learn how to play all of these popular casino poker games. For more information on where to play, check out this web page called Online Gambling Sites.
