Poker: a brief history
Poker has a long history and, like many card games, has crossed the globe in many different forms. Some believe poker to be derived from the Persian game As-Nas, while others believe its origin to be 10th century China. The earliest version played in Europe appears to be the 16th-century Spanish game Primero, which evolved into Pochen in Germany and Poque in France in the 17th century. English-speaking settlers in America called this game Poker.
Poker tournament games
The game caught on in America, but poker tournaments only became widely popular in casinos in the 1970s, after the founding of the World Series of Poker in 1970. Many of our games take the form of tournaments in which you have to outplay the other players at the table.

The most popular poker variation is Texas Hold’em, and this is also the style of most of our games. All free casino slot machines. The aim is to combine the two cards you have been dealt with the community cards placed on the table in order to make the best poker hand. Successive rounds of betting take place as the flop (the first three face-up community cards), turn (fourth street), and river (fifth street) are dealt. Will you fold or stick around for the showdown?
