Video Poker Bonuses

Online video poker has an immense fan base these days, and internet casinos have begun to recognize that more and more over the last few years. Video poker bonuses are becoming more prominent, allowing players to make a deposit and get a hefty sum of bonus cash to play all of their favorite online video poker games.

A video poker bonus is one that allows you to play video poker online to complete the wagering requirements. A vast number of online casinos continue to restrict players from wagering on video poker games to clear a bonus, but not all of them.

Rival casinos are generally the best for obtaining a video poker bonus. They offer on average 35x wagering requirements on “all games” bonuses, including video poker, which is a very good deal, although the video poker bonuses aren’t as large as “slots only” bonuses.

RTG casinos like Cherry Red for example let you claim any bonus (aside from a special “slots only” bonus) and play video poker to clear it. In Cherry Red’s case, the wagering requirements are 20x, but video poker bets count only 1/3 towards fulfillment of the rollover.

PlayTech casinos also have pretty good video poker bonus terms, averaging 20x rollover requirements with video poker bets counting 20% towards rollover. Vegas Technology has a similar deal, averaging 20x rollover at a 10% rate for video poker bonus clearing. Microgaming casinos tend to have the highest video poker bonus terms, requiring around 30x rollover with video poker bets counting only 8%.

Always read the terms and conditions of a video poker bonus. We’ve done a lot of research to come up with these numbers, but not every same-software casino runs the same promotions.
