Although multiplayer poker is the obvious choice for many, there are several single player
poker game variations which can be found at online casinos.
One of the best examples of a single player poker game is
Cyberstud Poker, which
in itself also bred the
Cyberstud
Progressive Poker game, the same game but with a progressive jackpot attached. Both these variations
are among the most popular poker games for solo players.
The poker game that pretty much every regular casino player will know is of course the very simple
Three Card Poker, which
doesn't need much of an explanation I'm sure! This is sometimes also known as
Tri Card Poker, which while
it looks slightly different, is essentially the same game. You'll also find the popular games,
Caribbean Stud Poker
and
Pai Gow Poker online,
again sometimes coming in different formats, such as the "bonus" format of
Bonus Pai Gow Poker.
On a personal note, I find multiplayer poker far more entertaining, but the single player poker
games definately have a place, and also have the advantage of playing much quicker of course. That
siad, some online casinos have combines a
Multiplayer
Poker product into their casino - normally it's the other way round - so some players will have the
option of single player or multiplayer without having to exit the software. All good!
For the poker die-hards, also check out
Spice
Island Poker - it's not one I've ever played mysel but I'm told it's an entertaining variant. Then of course
there are the
Video Poker games like
those shown in the screenshots to the right. These are often fast and furious and you can play up to
100 hands simultaneously.
