Play Video Poker Online

Welcome to the exciting world of video poker games. Online at Spin Palace Casino, we have a fantastic range of options in our casino games selection – ready and waiting for you to explore. Let’s look closer at what video poker has to offer our Canadian players, from gameplay variations and popular titles to strategies and more.

What is Online Video Poker?

When you play video poker online, you’ll find it combines elements of traditional poker with slot-style play. Unlike traditional poker, where you face other players, online video poker machines are single-player games against the house. The goal is to make the best five-card hand, with payouts based on the strength of your hand, similar to a poker game. In essence, it’s an exciting blend of skill and luck!

How to Play Video Poker Games Online

Playing video poker games online at Spin Palace is easy to pick up. Here’s a step-by-step guide:

• Select Your Game: Once you’ve signed up and become a Spin Palace member, log into your account.  Then navigate to the Tables and Video Poker tabs to choose from some of the best online video poker games for real money play.


• Place Your Bet: After picking your game, select your bet amount before starting the round.


• Deal and Discard: Receive five cards, decide which to keep and which to discard.


• One Chance to Discard: Remember, you have a single chance to discard and replace cards to build the best possible hand.


• Payouts: Receive payouts based on your final hand, with stronger hands earning higher rewards.

Video Poker Variations

Spin Palace offers a range of video poker online casino games to suit all preferences. As for the variations, they include the following:

• Full Pay vs Low Pay: In video poker, Full Pay games offer the highest possible payout percentages, as they stick to the most generous paytable – maximising players’ returns on certain hands, such as a full house or flush. Low Pay games, on the other hand, have adjusted paytables with reduced payouts for these hands, lowering the overall return. Understanding the difference helps you choose games with the best value, especially when aiming for long-term play and strategy.


• Single Hand vs Multi Hand: Video poker can be played online with a single hand, which allows for focused, straightforward gameplay, ideal for those who enjoy a slower pace and simpler strategy. Multi Hand games – like Power Poker – take it up a notch by enabling players to play multiple hands at once, ranging from 4 up to 100 hands, depending on the game. Multi Hand variations amplify the excitement and provide more chances for winning combinations, making them a great choice for those seeking dynamic, fast-paced play with higher reward potential.

Video Poker Strategies

• Strategy Charts: Use charts that outline the best moves based on the cards you’re dealt.
