Titan Poker Games
Poker games, from classics like 5 card draw to the type of poker Texas made famous, have a long and robust history that has been claimed to reach back to such far-flung locales as 15th century Germany, 16th century Persia, and nearly everything in between. While the exact origins of the game we now know as poker remain heartily debated, most players associate its history with cowboys, saloons and the Wild American West. Wherever it came from, whatever its roots, poker remains one of the most prolific forms of social entertainment in the world. Here at Titan Poker, it is our mission to bring its rules, history and attendant strategies to your doorstep.
The most popular poker variation is hands down, Texas Holdem, whose shotgun blast to the top of the poker favorites chart was the result of its appearance in the first 1970's WSOP. Today, more than half of the WSOP's 55 events, including the Main Event, are Hold'em variations. It is televised to an international audience from Romania to Rio and is must-see-tv for new and longstanding poker fans.
This global obsession with Texas Holdem, has, naturally, yielded the development of splinter and offshoot poker games like Omaha - Hi and Omaha Hi - Lo, the principles of which are similar to the holdem-community and pocket cards, flop-turn-river cards and precise betting procedures-but with a twist. In Omaha Hi, two, instead of four initial cards are dealt and in Hi-Lo , players aim for either top or bottom hands. Each of these games, Hold'em and the two Omaha variations, requires unique stategies and comes with its own challenges.
Of course, many players prefer sticking to classics like stud and draw poker. Draw poker is considered by many, albeit hotly contested by equally as many, a game of luck. 5 and 7 card stud, however, are still among the most popular poker variations both in land and online poker rooms. Unlike Holdem, stud poker doesn't play community cards and its betting is non-positional. Thus, a poker strategy specific to the game must be employed.
