10 Reasons You Should Play Jacks or Better Video Poker in Casinos!

[@esmelovesvintage]

I just love her presentation style 💕 so smart and relatable 💯💯

[@alandreyer2857]

I have not seen a 9/6 in any of the strip casinos in Vegas for years or any of the casinos in Oklahoma. A lot have already droped to 7/5. I prefer bonus poker which gives you double for 2 pair and has much higher payouts for 4 of a kind.

Linda Boyd does a video about why Bonus Poker is a good game to play, too.

I don’t know what you are talking about it’s everywhere, you just have to play at a higher level. If you are playing quarters then it probably is

[@alandreyer2857]

@@mralapenosarespicy Unless you are talking about $25 a hand there arent any in Tulsa. And I haven't seen any in Tulsa for more than $5. Nver checked the $25 a hand in Vegas.

I have a question. I'd like to play in convenience stores in Nevada, because there's no smoke. Granted the payouts won't be as large. Can I still make it worth my while, if I use good strategy?

[@alandreyer2857]

@@susanw9475 Only if you can find at least an 8/5 machine. On bonus poker you have to check the payouts on four of kind. They can vary uite a bit

Very easy to understand you good job

always good info 👍🙂

[@JBlinky67]

Bonus is good too.

[@VinsPinsandMore]

Yeah! All depends on how much volatility you are willing to deal with! Sometimes Jacks or Better can get a bit boring🤷‍♂️.

[@MondoLeStraka]

Deuces Wild has a slight player advantage. Why is that not mentioned? Standard deviation?

[@GaryLuKOTH]

You probably will not find full pay Deuces Wild anymore. They were all removed.

[@TheJackpotGents]

Whether it's single line or multi-line, the only thing that matters is the pay table. The strategy would not change.

@@TheJackpotGents think Bryan is asking for pay table not strategy

[@TheJackpotGents]

OK. You want the best pay table available. See common pay table variations, here - www.americancasinoguidebook.com/video-poker/video-poker-paytables.html

What is a class three slot machine, and what are the other classifications?

[@TheJackpotGents]

The Indian casinos in Alabama exclusively offer Class II video gaming machines. Class II video gaming machines are devices that look similar to slot machines, but in actuality these machines are bingo games and the spinning reels, are deemed for “entertainment purposes” only.

Just got back from Vegas. Didn’t go in every casino obviously….. but the ones I visited had a few JOB but 9/6 was VERY scarce

[@raymoles]

I'm a video poker player. I've never seen a Jacks or better that had a 9-6 payout and pays 2 for two pair. Most often a 2 payout for two pair has a 7-5 or 8-5 payout.

[@VinsPinsandMore]

9/6 Jacks or Better is hard to come by, or at least it has been for me, but I have seen them around(especially with lower rewards stated on a plaque on the machine). I have never seen a game labeled specifically “Jacks or Better” that has anything other than a 2x bet payout for two pair though. Maybe you are confusing some of the bonus games(bpd, ddb, tdb, ttb, etc.) with the traditional standard Jacks or Better.

[@Carguytct]

The Cromwell in Las Vegas had a few 3-4 years ago. I have played them many times. But they have changed them to 7/5 since they reopened after the C-19 shut down.

[@David-we3sb]

Are there any other video poker games that have lowest house advantage? Or is Jacks or Better the best?

[@toppscrt4057]

Does the bet amount affect the odds in video poker like slot machines?

[@RS-gt3fu]

It can, some nickle and dime machines may only pay 8/5 or worse... you may have to move up to 25 or 50 cents or even a dollar before they pay you 9/6.. even then, in some locations they just don't have good video poker anywhere.

[@markhayden4386]

The coin amount has nothing to do with the "odds." The odds are completely determined by the pay table. The demon will impact the expected loss per hour. For example a player with a rate of 600 HPH playing quarter 8/5 BP the expected loss per hour is $6.23. While the same player, playing the same game; but at the $5 demon the expected loss per hour is $124.50.

[@reneeann5340]

I was so excited to see full pay 9/6 at Ameristar in Blackhawk, then noticed it paid 2500 instead of 4000 for a ROYAL...WhaaWaaa!

[@Henry_Fung]

The one benefit of the 2500 RF games is often they pay 500 for a single coin. So playing this is often better than the 9/5 game at max coin at a lower denomination.

[@gregrowe1168]

I find video poker very boring and tedious. I suppose it is low volatility but you very seldom get a decent win either. Even a great hand like a 4 of a kind basically pays like a bonus in a normal slot machine. That hand is very rare. Constantly winning your money back or slightly more just isn’t very exciting. The only way to make it exciting would be to greatly increase your bet. It shows 25 cent denomination $1.25 max bet. It would be a game that a low roller might consider playing at a higher bet to increase excitement. Like doing a $1 denomination instead. Or even higher.

[@dackerman123]

Sure, if you start playing $5 / 10 hand, it gets a little more interesting

[@bogeys1242]

Video is years old and just being recycled. Lazy. Give 'new' video and interviews. 9/6? OK, good luck.

She repeated the same point over and over and her claims are wildly misleading or inaccurate. I also don't think she understands probability beyond a surface level unless she purposefully overly dumbed this down.

[@TheJackpotGents]

We believe she is correct in all of her claims. You would nedd to be specific as to what claims you think are "misleading or inaccurate."

[@TheOneTrueChris]

@@TheJackpotGents What is definitely misleading and inaccurate is you, presenting this as a "new" video -- when in fact, it is a recycled video from MORE THAN A DECADE ago. 9/6 Jacks or Better is almost non-existent in today's casinos. This video was good information back then, but it is no longer relevant. And it's dishonest for ACG to pretend this is a newly produced video.
