When most players think of casino machines, they immediately picture the bright lights of traditional slots.
+
However, Video Poker is a fundamentally different game that offers vastly superior odds to the player.
+
If you play with optimal strategy, certain Video Poker variants offer a house edge of almost zero.
+
Because the game uses a standard 52-card deck, the probabilities of hitting specific hands are completely transparent.
+
We will guide you through the basics of Video Poker strategy and show you how to beat the house edge.
+Understanding the Basics of Video Poker +
Every round begins with the machine dealing you five cards from a virtual 52-card deck.
+
You can hold all five cards if you are dealt a winning hand, or discard all five if the hand is terrible.
+
The machine then replaces your discarded cards with new ones drawn randomly from the remaining deck.
+
To win your bet back in standard games, you usually need at least a pair of Face Cards.
+
Because your decisions directly impact the final hand, your skill level dictates the overall payout percentage.
+The Secret to Winning: Analyzing Paytables +
Before you insert a single coin, you must look closely at the payout schedule displayed on the screen.
+
The gold standard for Jacks or Better is the 9/6 paytable, which offers a 99.54% return with perfect play.
+
Playing an 8/5 machine instead of a 9/6 machine will cost you hundreds of dollars over the long term.
+
Never settle for a short-pay machine; always seek out the best possible paytables available in the casino.
+
Another unbreakable rule of Video Poker is to always bet the maximum number of coins (usually 5).
+Jacks or Better, Deuces Wild, and More +
While Jacks or Better is the most common game, there are several other highly popular variants.
+
In Deuces Wild, the two-cards are wild, making huge hands like Four of a Kind much more common.
+
If you can find a good Deuces Wild paytable and play perfectly, you will theoretically make a profit over time.
+
These volatile games appeal to players who want larger jackpot hits without relying entirely on the rare Royal Flush.
+
Regardless of which variant you choose, you must download and study the specific strategy chart for that exact game.
