Video poker is rigged, plain and simple. Don’t even play. You’re wasting your money. You mostly get a pair to draw; get nothing. You have 4 cards to a Royal or Flush; you get nothing. That “strategy” “perfect play” payback is all bullshit. Don’t even do it.

It is true that the game is designed for the house to win, but there are ways to maximize your chances of winning. Your skeptical attitude about mathematically provable strategies will insure your losses will come faster than those that play with a strategy, unless you get extremely lucky. Which can happen. But don't count on it. Thanks for the comment nevertheless.

Hi, I've been watching your videos on keno. I am going to Vegas next week and have never played keno before, where do you suggest I start? Thanks
@TheMysticGamblerАй бұрын
I suggest that you start in a keno lounge, if they have one in the casino that you're going to. Play a discounted special if they have one otherwise start off with a 4 spot. One you win you can fool around with a 5, 6 and 7 spot. Once you get the 'feel' move to the machines. They usually pay a lot better but the games go much faster. May the good news be yours!

There’s some really bad advice in this video. If you have all low cards but no pairs, check for a straight draw. ALWAYS hold 4 to the straight, especially if it’s an open ended straight (you have 8 outs to catch to hit the straight). Also 3:39 player gets dealt 7 K 10 A J - ALWAYS keep that gut shot in Jacks or better or Bonus Poker unless at least 3 of them are suited to the Royal. The player in the video only keeps K J. Terrible play. Not sure what else is wrong in this video as I had seen enough and closed this feed.
@TheMysticGamblerАй бұрын
Thanks for the comment, but you have obviously missed the context of this video. We created it for those who are not interested in learning video poker strategy but to play reasonably well, casually. Specifically, you suggest that you should always hold 4 to a straight. Correct advice is NEVER hold 4 to an inside straight in Jacks or Better. Looking for open 4 to straights is correct, but not in the context of this particular video. The intent of the video is to make it as simple as possible for a somewhat disinterested player. With that in mind, what you are saying at 3:39 is also very wrong. Dropping the Ace in that situation is one of the first learned plays when studying any Jacks or Better strategy. You're much more likely to improve that hand by holding the KJ. Chasing royals with your gut is a losing strategy. You may feel comfortable with such decisions, but posting on this thread as an 'expert' on this game shows your lack of perspective in this case.
@outbackigloo648928 күн бұрын
@@TheMysticGambler- I partially disagree with you on the inside straights, although I get it that you are providing a simpler strategy for the casual gamer. I would draw to an inside straight in Jacks or Better if I am holding three high cards of different suits. As for the play at 3:39, your hold opened up the chance for a royal flush, making it the optimal play.

You don't necessarily have to learn another one but if you want to add volatility to your play ( highs and lows) to your gambling adventures, then the next step would be learn a bonus game. One that you can play using the same strategy and is not too volatile is called Bonus Poker. The best paytable for that is 8/5 if you can find it. Just make sure that two pairs double your bet, as some sneaky casinos only pay even money for two pairs. But you'll get a bonus for four aces and special hands. After that, and with a bigger budget, you could move to Double Bonus or Double-Double Bonus. The jackpots are bigger, but so is the risk of having painful losing sessions. You don't double your money for two pairs on those games. Thanks for the comment and question, and may the good news be yours!

I knew nothing about poker or video poker 10 days ago before seeing this video(like I didn’t even know what a flush was). Been playing like crazy, long sessions. Not really losing anything. Converted $250 free play into $275 cash using this last night at MGM. And I wasted some free play on slots and I tried a few ultimate X hands. Definitely going to focus on video poker now. Which game is best to learn next?
@TheMysticGamblerАй бұрын
Now that you have the basics for Jacks or Better games, you could move to the bonus versions fairly easily. Bonus Poker uses the same strategy and is still steady. Double Bonus starts getting very streaky, with big mountains and deep valleys. Later look at learning the Deuces games.

It would be 1 out of 4 odds if it were a full 52 card deck (13 cards of each suit). But if you already are holding 4 cards of the same suit, then your odds of catching the 5th suited card go way down because there’s only 9 of those left in the deck, 13 of one suit, 13 of another suit, and 12 of the 4th suit. Odds change dramatically and constantly once any 1 card is exposed.

I still see video poker all the time in Vegas and elsewhere. The main legitimate issue has to do with their default pay charts. Finding 9/6 machines is becoming fewer and further between which IS disconcerting, though of course as long as everyone does their homework and inspect the pay charts before playing any machine as well as practice strategy accordingly, you can still more than hold your own on 8/5 or even 7/5 machines.

There is a very minimal difference in the EV of the hands based on absolute mathematically perfect play. Playing with the Pro Software, it calculates those minor differences and choses the best EV, regardless of how fractional. It bases that selection on what's commonly referred to as "penalty" cards. Holding a card of slightly higher value (or lower) may increase the EV ever-so-slightly but, never-the-less, one card could change the possibility of improving the hand (or not) over the other. Thus the term "penalty card." Most players don't bother with learning those and I probably did a disservice to the community by using the program that includes those without explaining that on the right of the screen you can see why the computer selected one hold over another.
