Video Poker Tips ON YOUR WAY TO ROYALTY...
1) Change paper money into coinage and carry with you in a bucket to judge your bankroll.
2) How much do you bet for each max. hand? Multiply denomination by 5.
3) Play nickels to stretch your gambling bucks.
4) Ask change people: "where do the employees play video poker" to find full-pay VP's.
5) Learn how to read pay schedules; know the difference between full-pay and short-pay.
6) Learn optimum strategy for each VP version.
JACKS OR BETTER (JACKS+)
7) Best full-pay: 9 coins for full-house, 6 coins for a flush as designated under one coin line.
8) Pay-out with optimum play is 99.5%
9) 8/5 Jacks+ pay 8 coins for full-house and 5 coins for a flush resulting in a lower overall payout than 9/6's.
10) Casinos hold 2% more money on VP's, because players do not play maximum coins.
12) Ace is not the most important card.
13) Don't keep a kicker with a high pair.
14) Jacks+ is recommended for novice players or limited bankrolls, especially nickel VP's.
BONUS & PROGRESSIVE VP'S
15) Play 10/7 Bonus VP full-pay, 2 pair pays 2, best version.
16) Don't play progressives unless jackpot is high and ready to hit.
17) Look for 4/kind high secondary jackpots too.
18) Progressives require a larger bankroll.
DEUCES WILD
19) Play 9/5 Deuces Wild VP full-pay: 9 coins for Straight Flush and 5 coins for 4/kind.
20) Almost 20% of the time you will toss all five cards.
JOKERS WILD
21) Play 7/5: 7 coins for a full-house and 5 coins for a flush, Kings + = full pay Jokers Wild.
22) Go for a Straight Flush when possible for the higher return with a wild card.
GENERAL VP TIPS
23) Worst VP payouts: Deuces/Jokers Wild version.
24) If you don't play maximum coins on a VP quarter version, the return for hitting a Royal Flush with one coin in play is 250 coins = $67.50. However, nickels at max = 25ยข per hand and a Royal Flush pays 4000 coins = $200. This is a better wager management play.
25) If you play internet video poker, make sure they are full-pay schedules or pass.
