Video Poker Tips

The odds of winning video poker will differ from hand to hand and from game to game. For the knowledgeable player the house edge on video poker games is fairly small, and in some cases the odds are even or in perfect conditions in the players favor. The house edge will increase when you do not follow a proven strategy - so if you're a beginner don't look to win big right out of the gate.

As alluded to above, each variant of video poker has a strategy optimized for the greatest expected value of that particular game. Though each game might use a similar standard of poker play, using the optimized strategy will give you the greatest opportunity for gain over the long run.

Play Carefully - Take your time and make wise decisions. It's you against the machine and there is no need to rush things.

Know the Paytables - This is one of, if not the most important keys to success in video poker. You need to understand the paytables for each machine - understanding these will potentially allow you to maximize your winnings.

Play each hand like a new game - Since you are playing a machine try and forget about the last hand played. The machine has no memory of the last hand - the random number generator assures this, so don't fret over what happened last hand - focus on the next.

Practice makes perfect - the more you play the better you will be. Learning which cards to keep and which cards to discard is very important if you are to take full advantage of the payout tables. If you use your knowledge consistently i.e. utilize a strategy, it will help assure that you will meet the payout percentages of a particular machine.
