Get to know the Best Poker Games at 888-pokers
Texas Hold’em
A firm favourite with novices and seasoned experts alike, thanks to its exciting possibilities and dramatic showdowns, Texas Hold’em is one of the most popular games to play. There are four rounds (pre-flop, flop, turn and river), with each player being dealt two ‘hole’ cards to begin with. Victory in this game comes by forming the best five-card hand, using your hole cards and the five community cards – or convincing the others that you have it. Eager to learn more? Find out some tips and tricks right here before getting started.
Omaha Hi
Almost as much of a hit as Hold’em, Omaha Hi is packed full of excitement and action. Similar to Hold’em, your aim is to make the best possible hand, using your hole cards and the community cards. The difference in Omaha Hi, is that you’ll have four hole cards to choose from instead of just two! This game offers bigger hands and huge draws more frequently as a result, and is especially popular with newcomers. No matter your skill level, you’ll be able to pick things up very quickly.
Progressive Knockout (PKO)
Looking for an action-packed poker experience that’s filled with drama, tension and excitement? Progressive Knockouts (PKO) could be your new favourite game. Every player has a bounty on their head that increases as they progress through the field. If you manage to last until the end, you’ll even get to reap your own bounty. Not only does this offer great competitive fun, but you have the chance to win more cash than in a standard tournament.
Omaha Hi-Lo
A compelling variation of Omaha Hi, this draw-heavy alternative to the standard version gives you the chance to win pots with two made hands. As the name suggests, these are a ‘high’ hand and a ‘low’ hand. Play either fixed or pot limit formats – whichever you go for, it’s an exhilarating game to test your poker playing skills in.
BLAST
With the remarkable opportunity to win up to 10,000 times your buy-in, BLAST sometimes sees the victor of a small-scale Sit & Go secure a colossal jackpot. Three players compete against each other for a randomly drawn prize pool, in this time-limited single-table thriller. A timer starts counting down as the game begins. Once it runs out, players automatically go all-in, until just one winner remains. The prize pool isn’t revealed until the game starts, adding to the sheer anticipation of BLAST.

Are online poker games harder than live versions?
No. You can expect a similar variety of skill-levels online, to what you might find in a land-based casino. Smaller stakes cash games and tournaments are more likely to feature beginners and ‘casual’ players. Whereas high stakes games tend to attract experienced and knowledgeable veterans.
