Poker: A Brief History**
Poker has a long and fascinating history that spans across the world. Some believe that poker originated from the Persian game of As-Nas, while others think that it came from China in the 10th century. The earliest version of the game played in Europe appears to be the Spanish game of Primero, which evolved into Pochen in Germany and Poque in France during the 17th century. English settlers in America referred to this game as Poker.
Turnieje Pokera
The game became well-received in America, but poker tournaments did not become popular until the 1970s, when the World Series of Poker was established in 1970. Many of our games have a tournament format, where you need to defeat other players at the table.
Poker Texas Hold’em
The most popular variant of poker is Texas Hold'em, which is the style used by many of our games. The objective is to combine your two cards with the five community cards on the table to create the best possible hand. The rounds of betting proceed after the flop (first three community cards), turn (fourth card), and river (fifth card). Will you bluff or showdown?
