With the boom of online casinos one game has really come out on top -and that´s online poker. Poker has traditionally been a well liked at the land based casinos but it was never really over represented. There have been always an equal amount of other games available. But now that casino gambling has made its way to the internet, poker seems to be the most dominant force in the industry. There are actually entire online casino sites dedicated strictly to the game of poker.

Poker has traditionally done well at land based casinos as well as in private circles. The image of a lot of friends getting together in a smoke filled room to play casino online poker is an old stereotype but still very much exists. The rationale that poker is so popular is because of the publicity boost it has received. Live TV coverage of high stakes poker tournament often sponsored through the online casino have done wonders for spreading poker awareness on the net.
