| Video Poker Strategy |

| |
You can't just sit right down and start taking money out of the video poker machines like they are your own personal ATM. If you could, the casinos wouldn't have them on the floor. In fact, many of the video poker machines keep the house edge intact. These are not the machines you want to be playing. There are 3 basic video poker games; Joker Poker, Jacks or Better and Dueces Wild. You want to be playing a Dueces Wild machine. This is because there are 4 wild cards to help you make your hand. |

Understand the Odds
Many will tell you that Jacks or Better is the better machine because the payouts are bigger. For example, 9 to 1 for a full house. While Dueces Wild requires you make a straight flush to get paid 9 to 1, having 4 wild cards means you will be making winning hands much more often. The secret to beating video poker isn't the big payday when you make a royal flush, it's consistently taking the smaller wins. Over time these small profits will add up to big money.
Correct Strategy
There are plenty of online sites explaining optimal play. They also have charts and tables you can refer to in order to make sure you are making the right play in any given situation. There's no rule against having a copy of these tables with you in the casino or open on you screen when you play online.
Winning at video poker isn't about hitting the jackpot, it's about grinding out a profit from small advantages. This is the same strategy for making money that casinos use. If it works for them, it can work for you. Just remember, in order to win, you must be disciplined. Play at the right machines and always play correct strategy.
