Poker is still one of the most popular casino games to play. Although it has a long history in physical casinos, it has really taken off since the explosion of online gaming. As internet casinos have grown over the last few decades, poker has also found a new audience. But why is this classic game still such a staple of casino play?

Although the strategic gameplay and excitement of pitting your wits against other players are big factors, it is the range of poker variants to try that appeals most. This means that you will never get bored playing this game and always have a new version to try out when you fancy. Of course, it is key to find the best online casinos to game at first.

This will not only help you stay safe but also ensure that you play somewhere with lots of poker variants. If you need a hand finding somewhere to play, why not let casinopassport.com help? This trustworthy site brings together not only the safest places to game online, but also reviews the best games to try out.

Which are the top versions of poker that you need to try at least once in your life?

Texas Hold ’Em

This is the type of poker that most people associate with the game and that you will find at major events such as the 2021 World Series of Poker. In very simple terms, each player gets two cards to start with and must use these plus three community cards to make their best five-card hand. This type of poker has rounds of betting, such as the flop, the turn and the river, which you might have come across before.

Omaha

Another poker variant you should try out is Omaha. As you would expect, it offers plenty of action, strategic thinking, and the chance to win some money. How does it work? In essence, it is similar to Texas Hold ’Em but with a twist. In Omaha, players get four cards to start off with and have to use two of these plus three community cards to make their best five-card hand.

Seven-card stud

Before Texas Hold ’Em took off, this was the poker game that people enjoyed most around the world. In seven-card stud, up to eight players battle it out normally, and there are no community cards to use. Play begins with three cards being dealt to each player – two face down and one face up. After a round of betting, each player gets dealt another card before another round of betting occurs. This sequence continues until players have been dealt seven cards in all. Those still active show their cards and the best five-card hand wins.

Poker variants you must try at least once!

If you only try a few types of poker in your lifetime, then the above are the ones to choose! All of them offer lots of fun, lots of thrills, and some interesting gameplay.

MGCB Issues Cease-and-Desist Orders to Six Illegal Online Gambling Operators

Published

In a continued effort to safeguard Michigan residents and uphold the integrity of its regulated gaming environment, the Michigan Gaming Control Board (MGCB) has issued cease-and-desist orders to six online gambling operators unlawfully offering services in the state.

The named entities—Bonus Blitz Casino, DomGame, Royal Ace Casino, Slots Capital, Supernova Casino, and Wins Mania—have been found providing internet-based gambling without obtaining the necessary state authorization, violating Michigan’s Lawful Internet Gaming Act, the Michigan Gaming Control and Revenue Act, and sections of the Michigan Penal Code.

“These illegal operators often masquerade as legitimate gaming platforms, but they exist entirely outside the legal safeguards that protect consumers. When Michiganders play on unlicensed sites, they’re placing their personal and financial security at risk—with little to no recourse if things go wrong,” said Henry Williams, Executive Director of the MGCB.

Unlike Michigan-licensed gaming platforms—which undergo rigorous vetting, continuous monitoring, and must comply with strict state regulations—these unlicensed operators are not authorized to offer gaming services in the state. Some are based outside the US, operating beyond the reach of U.S. regulatory oversight, while others may claim domestic ties but still fail to meet Michigan’s legal and licensing requirements.

Because they operate without state approval, these entities do not follow Michigan’s consumer protection standards, responsible gaming mandates, or transparent dispute resolution procedures designed to ensure fair play and data security.

“This action sends a clear message to illegal operators: Michigan is not a place for rogue gambling. We are committed to preserving a safe, legal, and accountable gaming landscape—and that includes rooting out bad actors who threaten the trust we’ve built with consumers,” Williams said.
