Poker has been around since 1829 and started in New Orleans by French settlers. The game involved bluffing your way to a win or bets originally called 'Poques', which was similar to today's poker. Joseph Cowell, a popular writer reported the game was played in 1829, with four players betting on the most valuable hand.

This history lesson brings me to ask about the development of poker from this period onwards.
