Excellent video with great play! Love those Full Houses! Three to five Full Houses = a Quad! Just keep them coming!

[@johnsworldofvideopoker]

Thank you, Pecunious! The most number of Full Houses that I’ve ever hit in 1 hour of play was 21. THAT was crazy! But that’s the beauty of video poker…..its “randomness”. The probability of the pay tables dictates “what” can happen “on average”, but the random number generator says that “anything” CAN happen & it’s great when does, such as: 3 Royals in 3 hours for $110,000 in wins. Video Poker is lightening in a bottle!😝🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎

Greetings from Torrance! Hi John! Mom had a good laugh seeing herself playing. I told her she is now KZbin famous and will have to sign autographs! I had to go to her house and show the video because she has one of the few houses in America that has no internet. Wow, this was one of those good sessions that I would want every time I play. No quads, but enough full houses to fill a bank. I'm always hoping for a quad, but this will definitely do! Thanks again John!

Very nice John! 👍 More often than not, the tone of the session is set early. By the way, I thought the pace of play was perfect! Many times and I am guilty of it too, I see videos where the pace of plays gets faster and faster as the desire for good hands goes up giving an impression of "frantic" play. Congrats on the win!

Thank you, Jeff. And you’re right, I feel like I have to duck from pterosaurs, hop the fence away from herding buffalo, and dodge trains coming down the tracks when I’m in a casino nowadays.

Well, the small pair 7’s were the correct long term hold, but, yes, the $800 on the 4 Aces would have added a whole other dimension to this session. Next time!😁🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎

[@johncarlson6472]

"I had to think about that one for a little while." That's what sets Video Poker apart from regular slot machines and makes it way more enjoyable. You have to think and use strategy instead of just passively pulling a lever or hitting a button. The fact that it's a challenging (but not difficult) game makes hitting that big hand pay jackpot even sweeter.

[@johnsworldofvideopoker]

That’s such a great way to put it too, “Challenging, but not difficult”. Thank you for your spot-on commentary, John.🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎

Crazy number of fullhouses & 2 pair!! A dream session (even without any quads or RF).

[@johnsworldofvideopoker]

Yes! It was so unlikely to have all those Full Houses hit. A pair converts to a Full House once every 98 times held, so they don’t come around that often in such as short session. One time (at Palace Station in Vegas), I hit 21 Full Houses in exactly 1 hour and that has never occurred again since!😅🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎

[@kevinklugow6476]

Those little runs where you at least get jacks or better for 10 hands in a row are SO MUCH FUN!

[@johnsworldofvideopoker]

I was happy with the “steadiness” of this little run for a quick $500. This kind of “stability” played on a $20 coin denomination would have resulted in a $10,000 win, on a $50 coin denomination, it would have been $25,000, & $50,000 on a $100 coin denomination. This was a good example of how big money can be made on just the “bottom of the pay table” hits without any big hands. If the player scales-up the coin denominations.😉🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎

Hot machine and nice play, would you know aproxmitly how many royals are hit a day at red Rock casino?

[@johnsworldofvideopoker]

I’m sure Red Rock knows!🤣 But we would have to know how many video poker machines there are, how many hours are played on each machine per day to calculate the average number of hands are played a day. Let’s say it’s 1,000,000 hands played a day. Then divide that by 43,000 hands to get your answer. That would be approximately 23 Royal Flushes a day. But we don’t have the raw data to chrunch the real numbers, but that is an interesting question! Thank you for your question.😁🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎

[@sherrellbennett1333]

I've been going to Pechanga since they were in double wides and thought I knew every inch of the place, but I don't recognize the area where you are playing. Is it in the area where the buffet used to be?

[@johnsworldofvideopoker]

I’m glad to hear that someone (besides myself) has been going to Pechanga since it started in those tiny trailers (with only 5 cars parked in the dirt outside) from way back in 1995!!!🤣 Yes! You’re exactly right, where the old buffet used to be!🥹 There’s a bunch of Buffalo machines nearby, plus the ever present and ubiquitous, Caveman Keno, that are in the same rows of video poker machines there. I’m only glad someone wasn’t playing the “even louder and gigantic” 5-Reel Bally’s Quick Hit Machine (against the column, near the center of that room) That machine is truly ear drum piercing loud and overpowers every machine in the area!!!🥵I try not to play in there too much, specifically because, of the noise level. I tend to play in the larger area (not far from Bamboo) that some of the locals are starting to refer as, “John’s Corner”!🤣 But, I also like the row of 13 machines outside the High Limit area on the main floor (but they have Buffalo over there too: Holy Cow!!!) Also those Big Fu Cashbats Dragon machines in the same vicinity have such loud drums and choo-choo train type noises, that they have blasted me out of that area all together. I like the little video poker alcove nearby and the High Limit room as well. I go all over the place! Thanks for watching!🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎

[@sherrellbennett1333]

@@johnsworldofvideopoker OK, I'll check it out, but, like you, I hate those loud machines. The caveman is really bad, but overall the noise of keno machines are all around annoying. I usually play the old triple play machines in the high limit room. Very quiet!

Nice session John, I had another nice run tonight @ Resorts tonight. My host threw $150 slot cash @ me on top of my $85 regular slot cash and I was able to convert that into $700.

$700 off of free play is an awesome run. Good show! I’ve been to Resorts in Atlantic City and I liked it’s vintage charm. What kind of pay tables do they have there nowadays?🌎

[@gatesyslots]

@@johnsworldofvideopoker Thanks bud, yeah I know they aren't the most elegant casino in the city, buy I've played them all quite a bit and I prefer the older IGT machines. Most of the casinos in AC have updated their machines and changed they pay tables along with the RNG. I've been playing mostly 8/5 Joker, and I hit on 9/5 Draw Poker on Sunday. My wife hit on a non linked, non progressive 50 cent DDBP, 9/5 game last week. This is at the parking garage end of the casino opposite the board walk. There are some older IGT flat screens down near the table games and a few in the high roller pit, but down at the Board Walk, they are all newer games, I don't recall the pay tables but I didn't do well on them so I stay away. When I used to play at the old Show Boat Casino, the RNG's in the joker poker room were very predictable giving you a straight flush, or two prior to the 5 of a kind. The machines I play now are simular. I even found two slot attendants that used to work there and paid me many times! I usually play the in house linked progressives if they are near a certain dollar amount, otherwise I play any of the older flat screen older IGT machines that generally have a coin denom from 25 cent to $1 bet. I'm fairly certain the high roller pit has higher denom machines with more options. I just can't seem to leave my favorite pit! Why leave if I'm winning, right? 😉

Good run. Why don' t you play double up? I never did. Until. about 25 years ago at mystic lake casino MN I was playing the dollar coins (slugs) and the lady next to me got a coin jam and attendants opened machine and gave her the coins she lost. Then there was 1 credit left in the machine. They played it (i'm sure against rules) but got jacks or better. Then they doubled up because they couldn't keep it as employees. It went 1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256,512 and going for 1024 they finally lost. They were laughing but my jaw dropped. I never thought it could go so many times in a row. My friends and I started doubling all the time after that with huge success. Double till you have to pay taxex. LOL. Seems the only fair 50/50 bet in the casino? But not really because to get the chance to double you have to bet at casino odds first. Oh well. Good luck

[@johnsworldofvideopoker]

Double-up is a 50/50 propostion on the 1st shot, then 25 for / 75 against on the next one, then 12.5 for / 87.5 against, then 6.25 for / 93.75 against and so on. They usually set limits on the number of doubling events. I think 4 or 5 is the maximum amount of doubling. It is fun on occasion, but it eventually catches-up to the player. I have hit 4 doubles before though and it was exhilarating!😁🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎

How do you resist the urge to up your bets when things are flowing like that? And when is the time to maybe up it to the $5 denom?

[@johnsworldofvideopoker]

It all depends on what your goals are for any given session, particularly in the context of wether you’re “up” or “down” for the year. This year, I have not won or lost a whole lot either way. So in terms of “risk tolerance” for the remainder of the year, my goal is to conserve bankroll, so I can start-off Big in 2023 (even more so for the sake of my viewers on the channel). I want 2023 to be Big & stay big throughout the year. Over time, if you take a “goal-oriented” approach to each session, you video poker discipline will more than likely give you better results overall. Great thought provoking question!
