VIDEO POKER HISTORY
The game of video poker is
a fairly recent phenomenon, dating back to only the mid-'70s. Although early
slot machines used cards and poker hands as payoff symbols, players had no choices
to make; the reels stopped wherever the machine determined they would.
The increasing popularity of
video poker> can be traced to several factors and characteristics it has
in common with many of the more popular casino games. For instance:
- video poker is fast (like craps).
- video poker gives players the opportunity
to make decisions and a reasonable control over the results (like blackjack).
- video poker is similar to poker (like
many of the newest casino games).
- video poker gives the possibility
of a large payoff and is not intimidating (like slot machines).
