Video Poker Strategy – Machine Selection

“Good seeds grow well in the right soil.” Good video poker strategies work better in a wisely chosen machine.

First of all you got to hunt for the video poker machine, which provides the best payoff.  Understanding the pay tables is the first step in devising a video poker strategy.

The secret to money making is embedded in the pay table.  The payoff in video poker is based on the number of coins you play and not based on the value of the dollar you are playing. You got to know that all the pay offs in the video poker machines are formulated in proportions of the number of coins that you are going to bet.

Once you are sure of the pay table for a particular video poker machine, you will have to consider comparing it to the other video poker machines you have as an option.  You need not compare the payoffs for one coin, two coins, three coins etcetera; instead, you can just compare the payoffs for one coin between the machines, because the rest are going to be proportionately more.

The machine that will pay the most for single coin bets is probably the machine that provides the highest payoff.  Start from the machine providing with the highest payoff.  After you have done the homework of machine selection, you are done with the primary requisite to decide on your video poker strategy.

When you are playing the video poker machine for jackpot, you got to know that jackpot payoffs are not proportionate to regular payoffs.  Look deep in to the payoff for each hand and place your bets on the workable hands accordingly and make your play.
