>>> Video Poker Strategy
Payout percentages at the
video poker machines can get very high...especially if
gamblers use a little bit of strategy a lot of the time.
Far too often, though, the opposite is true (in which
gambler's use a lot of strategy just a little bit of the
time). The key to winning at video poker over the
long run is consistency. True, luck is a big part
of any gambling game, especially when drawing cards to
form a poker hand. However, if video poker is
played according to a tested strategy card, you will win
more often over the long run. The mathematical
odds speak for themselves, which is really the only
thing you can rely on when gambling.
Knowing at all times what
poker hand has the greatest odds of being drawn, based
on what you have already been dealt, is the basis of a
video poker strategy. Thus, you should always be asking
yourself which cards to hold and which to discard.
(There are several varieties of video poker, with Jacks
or Better, Deuces Wild and Jokers Wild being the most
popular...the strategy tips below are for playing Deuces
Wild, which is very similar to Jokers Wild).
-
Never discard 2's
(These are wild, meaning they can be anything you
want them to be - The gambling software
automatically gives them their best possible value).
-
Never discard a Pair.

three or more cards that have potential of becoming

cards, or, a 10 suited with three face cards.

a Straight Flush. For example, a suited 2,3,5,7or a

Flush. For example, a suited 3,8,K,Ace.
-
Always hold onto at
least four cards that have potential of becoming a
Straight. For example, a 5,7,8,9.
