Video pokers have always been very popular. 5 card poker is the base of video pokers. Americans have been playing poker since the early 1880s. The earliest records of the video poker machine were coin operated machines which used playing cards on drums and not a CGI powered poker game. These gambling machines appeared in the late 1800s, they were introduced by Sittman and Pitt of Brooklyn. These slots looked like slots that you can find in modern casinos. The player inserted a coin and pulled the handle, which spun five drums. The player would put all his faith in luck as the drums stopped. The owner of the bar gave a player who received a winning combination drinks or cigars from the bar. Later, in 1901 ‘hold’ and ’draw’ options were added to these machines by Charles Fey. Now the outcome of the game wasn’t determined only by a chance, but also by the skill of the player. Only then the time of video pokers came. After the invention of computers video pokers began to come about. People from all over the world began to play video pokers. Later online casinos began to offer different kinds of video pokers.
