Ethereum Video Poker review: Best sites & games of 2024

Get ready to go wild with almost 30 ETH video poker variants, conveniently categorized under Multi Hand and Single Hand. Wild Casino even gives them their own category on the main menu, an honor that’s usually reserved only for the likes of Ethereum roulette, blackjack, live poker, and slots.

Most titles are provided by Rival, but there’s also a good percentage of in-house exclusives covering Jacks or Better, Deuces Wild, and Bonus Poker. The single hand choice of variants is particularly good, given that many sites include this as an after-thought or an option on models that are primarily multi hand.

Something to be aware of is that Wild Casino does not operate with a gambling license. However, I was satisfied with the safety features which include SSL encryption, responsible gambling, and partnerships with highly-respected game providers. The upside of this is that US players can join without any issue.

There are no demo versions here so you’ll need to make a deposit to play. If you’d like to practice in demo mode first, Spin.bet allows you to do this for all games that aren’t live.

There are 27 video poker games available here, but just make sure you don’t click on the main Poker menu, as you’ll be taken straight to the live tournaments. Instead, type ‘poker’ - not ‘video poker’ - in the search bar, and all the RNG options will come up.

Spin.bet offers video games by Nucleus, Wazdan Gaming, Turbo Games, and Play ‘n Go, among others. You can enjoy them all in demo mode for free so as to become familiar with the rules before putting down a real money wager. However, bear in mind that when playing Ethereum video poker in free mode, you won’t be able to cash out any winnings.

For those who enjoy keeping as many aspects of the live game as possible, Spin.bet offers Hold’em Poker, which combines elements of video poker and Texas Hold'em. Incidentally, the casino also offers a collection of more than 100 ETH baccarat games, if you’d like to try this next.

The selection at Flush casino is very lush, with 48 titles from well-known providers like Habanero, Wazdan games, and Games Global. There are a lot of All American Poker games available, with a choice of up to 100 hands. Expect very fast-paced rounds, with the advantage that you can change the number of hands with every round. A similar Bonus Poker version is also available. This variant is based on Jacks Or Better, but with extra bonuses for four of a kind hands.

The one thing that puts me off somewhat here is that stakes aren’t low, with most titles starting at $0.20 (approximately 0.000076 ETH). Fine, so it’s not the highest of stakes, but it’s not the lowest, either.

That said, Flush has its RNG game very much on point, with roulette and blackjack also being very well-represented. So if you’re into classic games but don’t want to play live, this is an excellent site overall.

It’s difficult to find fault with a casino that promises - and delivers - lightning fast cashouts. And indeed, the faults I’ve found are merely cosmetic.

But let me start with the good stuff. Betplay offers 35 ETH video poker games provided by KA Gaming, Nucleus, Habanero, and Wazdan gaming. These include popular variants like Super Video Poker, Turbo Poker, and Caribbean Beach Poker. Some of these are also available in free mode.

My one complaint? Don’t click on the main ‘Poker’ portal in the menu as this only takes you to the live lobby - but this is normal even with other casinos. To catch the RNG options, you’ll need to use the search bar. Unfortunately, this will also include live tables, so you’ll need to scroll and wade through options that don’t really interest you.

I did say that it was only a cosmetic complaint, didn’t I? But you know what makes up for it? The super-low transaction fees when it comes to cashing out. If you pick a quiet time of day, you pay next to nothing, which translates to around 0.0001892 ETH in gas fees (ie the charges arising from the energy required to process transactions on a blockchain network).

You won’t find the biggest selection of ETH video poker at Cloudbet, but it’s one that offers all the most popular variants. It even comes with its own category on the side menu - click on it, and you’ll be rewarded with 12 options and the corresponding RTP% for each. This alone earned this casino a top spot on my Ethereum video poker review.

The titles are all provided by Microgaming, which means you get to enjoy the biggest fan favorites like Deuces Wild Power Poker and Flash Joker Poker. You’ll find that most of the games are medium-roller friendly, and minimum bets start at around $1 (approximately 0.000417 ETH), so if you’re on a low budget you probably want to look at other options like JustBit casino.

Another huge pull towards this site is the mega-helpful Telegram community that you can join and socialize with. Whether you want to ask for tips about strategy or just shoot the breeze, Cloudbet’s Telegram peeps are there for you.
