Video poker has made a grand entrance into the world of live dealer games, thanks to Evolution. Players can now indulge in five distinct variations of video poker, playing up to 100 hands with a live dealer. Boasting one of the highest RTPs in casino games, this addition was long overdue. Evolution Video Poker Live seamlessly blends the live dealer experience with RNG mechanics. It will be available at numerous Evolution online casinos starting on 23 August. Here’s a brief overview of this new live table game.

Set against a Vegas-themed backdrop, this live dealer video poker format offers a more relaxed pace compared to traditional video poker machines found in land-based casinos. The game's objective remains the same: to craft the best possible five-card hand. The gameplay unfolds as follows:

  • Choose your preferred video poker version (options listed below).
  • Determine your bet amount and decide on the number of hands you wish to play (up to 100 hands).
  • The dealer deals five cards from a standard 52-card deck.
  • Players decide which cards to retain or discard.
  • The RNG then replaces discarded cards with new ones from a virtual deck, creating a fresh five-card hand.
  • Wins are determined based on the Poker hand rankings of the selected game version.

A standout feature of Evolution's Video Poker Live is its variety. Players can explore five different versions, each with unique gameplay strategies and volatility levels. It's worth noting that all payouts are clearly displayed when selecting a game:

  • Jacks or Better Live (99.54% RTP): Adhering to the 9/6 version, the aim is to secure at least a pair of Jacks or better. This medium volatility game is perfect for those seeking a balanced gameplay experience.
  • Tens or Better Live (97.96% RTP): Similar to Jacks or Better, but the minimum winning hand is a pair of tens. With its lower volatility, it caters to players who prefer more frequent wins.
  • Bonus Poker Live (99.17% RTP): This version mirrors Jacks or Better but offers increased payouts for specific four-of-a-kind hands.
  • Deuces Wild Live (98.91% RTP): All 2s serve as wild cards, enhancing the likelihood of strong hands. This high-volatility game is tailored for those chasing larger wins.
  • Double Double Bonus Poker Live (98.98% RTP): An upgraded version of Bonus Poker, it features even greater payouts for certain four-of-a-kind hands, particularly when accompanied by Aces and high-ranking kickers.

In conclusion, Evolution's Video Poker Live showcases how classic games can evolve for contemporary audiences. Merging live dealer interaction with RNG elements provides a richer, more immersive experience, offering a fresh take on a traditionally machine-centric game. While newcomers might face a slight learning curve, with the right strategy and some practice, the game promises both entertainment and potential rewards. Whether you're a seasoned gambler or a newbie eager to explore, Video Poker Live is certainly worth a try.
