New poker sites: casino poker and video poker ranked
2 Of the 2 new casinos on our list name a live casino, where poker is dealt by a person
At an online casino, poker usually means playing against the house: Casino Hold'em, Three Card Poker, Caribbean Stud and video poker. The house edge depends on the game and, for video poker, on the pay table.
Player-against-player poker rooms are a separate product. A few brands on our list run both, and UK rules ban any welcome offer that ties casino play to another product.

Questions
New poker sites: questions
Is casino poker the same as a poker room?
No. Casino poker is played against the house; a poker room matches you against other players and takes a rake.
What is a 9/6 pay table?
Jacks or Better that pays 9 for a full house and 6 for a flush per coin, the best common version.
Do stake limits apply to video poker?
The UK £5 and £2 caps apply to online slots. Check the casino's terms for how it classifies video poker.
Does poker count towards bonus wagering?
Often at a reduced weight. Check the terms.
Responsible gaming
Play only if you are 18+ and it stays fun
These rules apply on every page of this site. A young casino has less history to judge it by, so the limits matter more.
Adults only, everywhere
You must be 18 or older. A licensed casino must check your age and identity before you can deposit or play, so have your ID ready when you register.
Responsible gamingStart small with an unknown casino
Deposit an amount you would accept losing to a failed withdrawal, and request a small cash-out early to see how the casino handles it.
How we review new casinosSet limits before the welcome offer
Bonus wagering keeps you playing longer. Set a deposit limit and a time limit in the account before you claim.
Set your limitsFree, confidential support
If playing stops being fun, talk to someone. Gambling Therapy offers free support in many languages.
