Video Poker Strategy

    
You need to adapt your playing strategy to the game you are playing obviously. Play video poker to a perfect strategy (ie when you choose to hold and when you choose to discard cards between the 1st and 2nd rounds) and you will enjoy some of the best odds available at an online casino.

You must weigh up the potential jackpot versus the odds of winning any one hand. Each individual pay table on each variant has its own specific strategy to maximise your winnings. Play the same strategy across Jacks-or-Better and Deuces Wild or Joker Poker and you´ll come unstuck.

So make sure you do your homework on the variant that you are playing.

Remember, you will lose most hands that you are dealt in video poker. What you are hoping for, is to drop the big one. If you do- quit the casino! Don´t be tempted to continue to "ride your luck". At least change games or casinos.

Video poker machines win about 6 out of 10 games. You will only come up trumps about 40 % of the time. And the high payout video poker machines can be even more stingy. But don´t get sidetracked into playing with your gut rather than your head. Stick to your strategy!

You may win every now and then, but it is far better to play the odds and play mathmatically.
