Aces and Eights is one of the video poker options that are available through Microgaming, the leading manufacturer and developer of online casino software in the world. The game features sharp graphics, a user-friendly interface and presents a twist on the payout schedule that is available to the player in other variations of video poker. Within the video poker realm, the player is of course not competing against the other players at the table but instead against the house. Therefore, the player only has to beat one "opponent."
