Video poker is an easy game to learn to play with skill, so take some time to learn the general draw strategy, as well as the greatest machines to play. Also, the pointers below will give you a better chance of winning and above all make the game more entertaining.
- Do not maintain a kicker (a backup card, frequently an ace) with a pair. This lessens your odds of drawing a 3 of a kind.
- Be certain the "hold" button lights up for all the cards you want to hold before hitting the draw button.
- Make certain the machine utilizes a "hold" button. Almost all do, but a couple use a "discard" button instead, where you indicate the cards you want to discard by pushing the button in place of the cards you want to keep.
- Take some time and consult the draw chart provided above for each hand. One of the key advantages of gambling on a video poker machine is that nobody will push you. Use all the time you want. Think every hand through, have a drink, the machine will always sit there waiting patiently!
- If you are a beginner, select the smallest valued machine you are able to discover and gamble on it until you are acquainted and relaxed with the drawing technique.
Follow these pointers and your bankroll will last longer and you just might be the one to hit that 600,000 to 1 royal flush!
