Video pokers can be said to be one of the most popular gambling machines. Video poker originates from the original 5 card poker. The game of poker has been played in America since the early 1880s. The earliest records of the video poker machine were coin operated machines which used playing cards on drums and not a CGI powered poker game. Sittman and Pitt of Brooklyn introduced these machines in the late 1800s. These machines were like modern slots, as they have the same principle of work. The drums were spun by pulling the handle after inserting a coin. The player would put all his faith in luck as the drums stopped. The owner of the bar gave a player who received a winning combination drinks or cigars from the bar. But in 1901, Charles Fey made the next big innovative alteration to the poker machine by adding a 'hold' and 'draw' feature to the already wildly popular machine. Now the outcome of the game wasn’t determined only by a chance, but also by the skill of the player. Then came the Video Poker Machines you see today. They appeared after the introduction of the computers. There appeared a lot of people who played video pokers. Nowadays videopokers are available even in online casinos.
