Online Casino Video Poker Games - Strategy

Use A Video Poker Strategy And Win More Often!
Developing your video poker game strategy means devoting a small amount of time to learning about certain elements of the games you play. After all no one can play a piano properly without practice.

Understanding these elements is just as, if not more important than knowing the basics of the game.

Percentage Payouts

What do they mean for your game? Just this..

You will often see video poker games or machines with a 99.5% payback. For example, a 9/6 Jacks or Better game which pays 9-1 on the Full House and 6-1 on the Flush.

These are supposed to pay put $99.50 for every $100 played on them and the house would be operating on a .5% advantage in these cases. That would be not too much different to the house advantage when you play a basic strategy in blackjack.

But here’s the what you should know. That payback and those percentages only hold up if you are able to learn a strategy for video poker and implement it perfectly.

If you play unwisely or deliberately go out of your way to discard potentially winning cards your disadvantage will go up considerably and the payback on the game will go DOWN considerably.

Different % Paybacks

Percentage payback is going to be different according to what kind of game you play.

For instance an 8/5 Jacks or Better game - the player gets paid 8-1 on the Full House and 5-1 on the Flush - has a payback of 97.3% giving the player a 2.7% disadvantage - even with perfect strategy play.

A 6/5 Jacks or Better game which pays just 6-1 on a Full House and 5-1 on a Flush has a payback of 95%.

Obviously, no one would be advised to compete at a game with a 5% built-in house advantage, when there are better games available.

Game Outcomes

In both land based and online video poker games the outcome is based on an RNG - Random Number Generator. Both are games where you are basically in control of your own decisions and the speed at which the game is played.Remember no one should ever play video poker with the intention of making money and NOT have some sort of strategy laid out.

Apply a strategy to your game and you'll give yourself a much better chance of winning more often.

Play Free

Remember you can play free video poker at all our online casinos. Simply download their software, register as a guest and play. Playing for fun is a great way to get to grips with the game and get your skill levels up.

When your ready it's easy to start playing for real money and another great thing about the game is the fact that you don't have to spend a fortune playing it.

Above all enjoy your video poker wherever and whatever game you play.
