For many years, if you went to a casino or card club to play poker, the most popular game going was Seven-Card Stud. For a long time, this game and Omaha were titans of the poker world, until 2003, when a young hotshot named Chris Moneymaker won the World Series of Poker playing Texas Hold-Em. After that, Hold Em fast became the game of choice, leaving Seven-Card Stud in the dust. Regardless, however, there are still plenty of Stud games being played both in casinos and online, and may poker purists find that Stud is a much better game overall. If you’re either a Stud pro or just want to get into the game, we have compiled a list of the best Stud poker sites you can find online.

PKR Poker
Pros
Large signup bonus
Lots of action
Beautiful graphics
Cons
Limited high stakes options
Software is resource intensive
If you’re the type of player who wants a more interactive gaming experience, then PKR is the right place for you. This site offers lots of different games, but what sets it apart is the fact that you can render a 3D poker room, so it looks like you’re playing against people in a video game. However, the downside to that is that it takes up a lot of your computer’s processing power, so you do need to keep that in mind.
Another reason to sign up with PKR is the fact that it offers a huge signup bonus (up to $2000), and it has a great VIP scheme. To get really good at Stud you have to play for hours on end, so why not take advantage of a site that will reward you for playing?
