Video Poker
History of Video Poker
The history of video poker is a combination of the invention of poker, slot machines and the television. In about the mid-1970s, approximately the same time as personal computers were being developed and enhanced, Video Poker became a reality when technology became advanced enough to combine a central processing unit with a television monitor. As quickly as the technology improved, so did video poker, and manufacturers took note of the market demand for such machines.
Video poker allows players the opportunity to learn more about poker, without the intimidation that they might experience at a regular poker table. Players have the ability to make unique decisions with any given hand. The element of control that the player has in the outcome of a hand makes video poker very popular.
