Play Live Poker for Real Money at LeoVegas

Poker is one of the most popular card games in the world and players can find Poker in either a single player or multiplayer format here at LeoVegas. Our multiplayer option is provided through our live casino, which brings huge amounts of players together across hundreds of different games.

Online Poker is famous for the intense atmosphere where players battle against each other to win real cash prizes as they attempt to bluff their way through to the end of the game. Our online poker tables don’t require a strong poker face but can still provide massive win potential.

How Live Poker Works?

When playing online poker, you will notice that today's live dealer games are highly sophisticated and use the latest streaming technology, with multiple camera angles, professional lighting and High Definition quality as standard.

Some live poker rooms are located in genuine land-based casinos, where you can experience all of the hustle and bustle of being on the vegas strip. While other real-money online poker games are streamed directly from professional studios, you can play poker online regarding your preference.

All of the games within an online poker room work much the same as you’d expect if you were visiting a land-based casino, except online poker players will use on-screen controls to tell the dealer of their decisions instead of using voice commands or hand signals.

At LeoVegas, we’ve partnered with the world’s best live poker game providers, such as Evolution Gaming which has studios dedicated to poker in Canada, Latvia and Malta.

All games, including our texas hold'em variants, are managed by experienced and professional dealers who ensure games run smoothly and provide a first-class poker experience, even if they're frequented by recreational players.

Within our collection of live online poker rooms, we have all sorts of options for you to play poker online. Whether you're looking for a high-stakes game, a variant which features micro stakes or the various games which feature seven-card stud or three-card poker, we've got you covered.

How To Play Live Poker

It's easy to join live dealer poker games by simply logging into your account or registering if you are a new player and then selecting the game you’d like to play. There's usually an unlimited number of seats available in most cash games, so you can immediately begin playing. While several variations are available, many live poker rooms usually follow the typical Texas Hold'em routine:

  • Players make compulsory bets (blinds)
  • Dealer issues two cards per player
  • Call (match previous bet), raise (increase bet) or fold (give up)
  • Dealer places three community cards (flop)
  • More betting, raising or folding
  • Fourth community card (turn)
  • Repeat step 5
  • Fifth community card (river)
  • Repeat step 5
  • Showdown! The winning hand is revealed and awarded the pot (money)

So before you play poker games, be sure to take a look over all the rules and remember that some rules can vary at each online poker site, so they may change depending on the variants or cash games you enter.

Real Live Poker With Real Dealers

Live dealer poker online is real-time entertainment. Many players enjoy interacting with or simply sitting back and watching the dealers. The best live dealer casino cash games feature professional dealers who often have significant experience in the games they manage. So it means you'll always be in the know when you play online poker, whether you're choosing to partake in a hand of Hold'em or Caribbean Stud.

During a game, you can make real money bets and have the chance to potentially win big if you join a cash game. Everything about the game is real, in fact. The only difference between playing online and visiting a casino in person is that the action is streamed to your device for the ultimate convenience.

Live Online Poker Strategy

Poker is highly regarded for its potential for strategy and is a game that combines luck with an element of skill. In Brazil, playing casino-style games has been strictly forbidden since 1946. However, poker isn't included in the ban because it was officially declared to be an intellectual sport.

Bluffing is an essential part of poker strategy, and can often see players placing bets in amounts that aim to deceive opponents into thinking they are holding a high-value hand, in an effort to encourage other players to fold.

In land-based casinos, players try evaluating their opponents' hands by observing their expressions. When playing online, players and the dealer cannot see you online, so you don’t have to work too hard to keep your poker face on. Instead, it’s useful to watch how players bet, which can help to give you clues about the value of the hand they hold - unless they are bluffing!

Playing Poker Online and Other Live Casino Games

Poker has evolved into a clever game of strategy that's perfect for online live dealer games. It's great fun to play and has the potential to win amazing cash prizes. As well as poker, here at LeoVegas, we’ve got a fantastic range of live casino games, including live blackjack games to choose from, and there is also live baccarat.

Playing Three Card Poker with a Live Dealer

In Three Card Poker, players will compete against the dealer and not other players at the table, this means that hundreds of players can play the same Poker game and it won’t impact payouts. Payouts in Three Card Poker can reach as high as 100/1 through Poker side bets.

With side bets such as Pair Plus and the 6-card bonus bet, Three Card Poker offers dozens of opportunities to land wins live across the game.

Playing Texas Hold Em’ with a Live Dealer

Similarly to in Three Card Poker, Texas Hold Em’ with Live Dealers puts you up against the dealer in a one-on-one scenario as a 500+ player Poker game, whilst would be extremely entertaining, doesn’t quite provide strong opportunities to land big wins.

While Hold’em Poker is the standard version of the game, played with a standard deck of 52 cards and the aim of achieving a stronger 52 card deck than your opponent. With side bets available, there are more opportunities to win in this game than in standard Poker games.
