I was asked to do a review of an Internet casino/sports book and found a game I haven't seen before called Bet on Poker. Terrible name for a game. It is a live dealer game where you bet on which hand will win and what the winning hand will be.

Please click the link and let me know what you think. As always, I welcome comments, questions, and especially corrections.

The question for the poll is would you play Bet on Poker?

Unless I missed it, you didn't indicate if any bet was required.

The first photo in the More Screenshots section is currupt and need a new upload.

Seems interesting. Some novice holdem players might like it, but I'll pass.

"Ten Hand Holdem" was a similar game tried in my local casino for awhile. If they had those dealers dealing it though, it might have stuck around a bit longer.

In the UK, bookies run virtual racing (horses dogs etc.) as well as other side games. Sometime ago I saw an 8-hand version of this, but only on the winning hand. I assume they used the standard dead-heat rules (i.e. tie pays half return) and didn't really look at the value. They also had a version of keno where you pick six numbers and your winnings are based on how quickly all six come up. I suspect most of these virtual things have a large house edge, but I haven't worked it out.
