Met John a few weeks ago. He is legit. He showed me his list of RFs. I thought a couple dozen over the course of his lifetime, but nope, the list went back to 2019! He talked my ear off about strategy. I'll pay more attention next time. Smartest, not luckiest, dude in that group. Slot Massacre is most influential on YT.
Yep. I just won my 18th recorded Royal Flush on Thursday night. It is always three to a Royal or two to a Royal or you will be dealt a flush with four to a Royal or even two to a Royal. Always go for the Royal. The game is programmed that way. I am sure I have missed a few when I was too chicken shit to take a chance. So now I just go for it.
Well Jerry Jones hit the big one 3 times early on with the Cowboys but hasn't seen it again for over 25 years. Anything can happen but be very careful chasing it. I know of so many who lost big time after tasting such great luck. Congrats John!
Reading some of the comments I noticed people with good intentions saying not to chase it, etc. Years ago I realized I could easily spend way too much money so I developed a strategy that works pretty well for me. Whenever I win a hand pay I take out what I've spent then split the remaining win. Half is banked and the other half is my play money. Now when I say play money I don't just use it to gamble. I use it to help the kids out, charities and such, or I buy that certain something I might want or I want for someone else that's outside my normal budget. After several streaks, my play money has built up pretty good over the years and that is all I play with. When it's healthy I play higher denoms and I play more often. If it starts to dwindle I play more conservatively and I play less often. I have not played with my own money in several years.
Hi LaVaun. Yes, discipline is key. For decades, I've budgeted my "casino money" out every month. I consider it disposable "entertainment" money. Therefore, when I lose, it's no big deal. However, when I win, those winnings are getting stacked onto next month's "stake"...Nice! It's pretty damn exciting, when, from time to time, you come home from your "vacation" with more money then when you left!! My ex girlfriend, who wasn't a gambler was totally fine with my gambling as she not only knew I was good at exerting self-control, she LOVED the fact that when I won, I'd always, without fail, take her on a shopping spree on my dime. The times she'd buy lingerie were particularly enjoyable...Smiles!
There is a lesson to be learned here.being lucky in video poker will always trump the right play.every royal I've ever had has always except once come from holding 1 or 2 of the 5 cards.hence.I see you hold all the time multiple face cards of different suits.I guarantee you have missed out on quite a few doing that.the times I've been dealt 4 of the 5 cards I've never gotten it.when its your time to have something you will have it.
Most of us don't know a lot of people in our normal lives who share an interest in video poker advantage play. Most people I bring it up to think I'm just some crazy degenerate who is throwing all my money away. Grinding out small profits with freeplay, cashback and promotions is a sweet deal, especially when you tack on the free rooms, entertainment, food, and drinks.
Epic! Truly Epic! It's unreal how when playing VP, one can have an agonizing dry spell, then Bam!, suddenly you're killing it. That's what makes VP so exciting...being ready...grinding it out with correct, budgeted play until the next streak comes and you hit the Royal or string of high payout Quads. The comparative benefits of VP to other casino games is undeniably compelling, IMO: (1.) You want a low house edge...through ALL "coin in" ranges of $.05 to $500.00? GOT IT. (2.) You want the choice of a variety of VP games with various ranges of volatility? GOT IT. (3.) You want the intellectually stimulating benefit of playing interactively to optimize outcome through learning correct strategy? GOT IT. (4.) You want to be able to control the speed of play (from slow to rapid-fire), depending on your mood and/or bankroll? GOT IT. Let's face it folks, VP just plain rocks.
@@johnsworldofvideopoker Thanks John! Yeah, it's exciting to see more VP content producers as I like to see others enjoying this great game. My other go-to games are Black Jack and Craps...do you play these games, or pretty much stick to VP?
@@johncarlson6472 My older brother was a big time Craps enthusiast.

Between VP, 3 card poker, and high card flush, I took 300.00 in a day to 6800.00 And I thought I was on fire like Richer Pryor. LOL This is AWESOME! Hey Big Cat I see you :+)
I must have just missed him at both places . This machine at Pala had two hand pays within 30 min @ the $5 denom . What a day , Congratulations to John !
video poker is an easy game compared to blackjack imo the swings there are unbarable 1.25 max bet vs 150$ max bet and worried about being backed off yuck i do wonder the odds or how many tries it would take to be successful at it to go 15$ to 100k$
I've done something similar. Hit a royal playing $5 denom for 4k. Decided to play some $10 spins on a slot and hit a 10k jackpot. Went back to video poker and was playing $20 denom and hit another royal for 80k. There is no other experience than gambling when you're on fire. Sadly most of the time it's pretty bad. Been very cold lately but I have also hit 3 royal flushes over a weekend before. If you play long enough you will run into these scenarios.
I can’t believe John had three royal flush is in one day! I’ve been playing Video Poker for 40 years and I have only had one Royal flush. Amazing, great job guys. Love the content can’t wait to see more.
@@Joseph-rx9tp are used to play the most volatile of all games because of the temptation of a large payoff other than the royal flush. John has taught me to play primarily bonus poker. Since then I’ve hit three Royals in a six week period.
I have had small runs where I turned $20 into $16K once in 38 years of playing video poker and I have seen a friend (all in one day) win $1k on poker then $4K on dollars then $20K on $5 and then press it and sure enough won $100K on $25 just like your friend, that was at least 20 years ago and was the worst thing that could ever happen to her, she had in just a few months lost everything she had. no one ever gets to repeat that kind of a win and always loses more, I hope your friend is aware of this. The biggest joke is the US government takes a share but doesn't give any back the following years when she lost. Just food for thought. I love gambling but hate what it does to those who need the money.
WOW! THE Dream run!! Thank you John and Andrew for sharing this video with all of us!! what an amazing run! and what a brutal bonus poker machine! thanks for sharing that straight play... it makes it more exciting and realistic. you get em next time! good luck!
What a awesome day for your friend. Ty for the great story and for your videos. Watching you play really helps me be a little better player.have a great day.cg
Hey Andrew, I heard you say, 'Team Slot Massacre" and thought it'd be really cool (if you haven't though of it already) if you made a "Team Slot Massacre" T-Shirt. I'd like to buy one if you made them available.
So does John have a UA-cam channel as he would be worth watching too. I would add him to you Andrew and Jeremy. I like the way John rolls. Pala is my home casino, wife and I have hit well over 20 Royals there over the years. One trip I hit for 6K dollars went to quarters and hit small Royal and went back 4 weeks later hit another. Full pay tables on all dollar and above most with progressive's.
Omg starts out with a hundred dollars free play hits $2,000 grand then hits $8,000 thousand dollars then hits $100,000 hundred thousand dollars wow awesome love this storys dam
Guy from Houston Texas in early 80's put $777,000 on don't Pass Craps @ Binion's Horseshoe Club in Las Vegas. The female shooter rolls a 7 I think on 3 throw. He walks out with the winnings. He came back a few months later & lost 6 figures on a similar bet. He ended up jumping off a building in Houston. Check Google for more details.
Money goes fast, I won $80,000 one night at Morengo, start with $1 x 10 hands, dealt royal flush so jackpot was $40,000. So i raised to $5 denom and hit few more jackpot. Gave 20k to my sister, lost whole 60k at San MAnuel next day.
Do you hit more flushes or inside straights I swear I never hit 4 to a flush however constantly hit inside straights do you have any stats on that ? Thanks and good luck John Tanda
no way way to go man! WOOOOOOOO! the guy in the 80s , i think he put it on black and got 2 to 1. if he would have got a number it would have been like 3 mil
And at that age, you are due for a run like that. Especially and assuming he has been playing for a few decades. My best night going into the next day was over 4k on a progressive $1 and of course I'm staying now, to a .25 progressive for over $1200. All within 5 hours total. Weary and tired drive home but couldn't go to sleep till around 4am that night.
Can you please explain why you would hold A Q unsuited as opposed to A 10 suited? Holding unsuited royals makes very little sense to begin with to me. Just hold one of them. Otherwise you lose your chance at the royal flush. Plus you get an extra card at the JACKS or better scenario. Not holding suited royals makes even less sense to me. You can't get a royal flush without the 10! I know the game is JACKS or better, but still...by not holding the 10, you again just lost your chance at a royal. I don't think going for mere JACKS or better and sacrificing potential jackpots will lengthen the play time so significantly. 2 fifths of a royal or 40 percent of a royal has got to be better than zero fifths or zero percent. Or am I missing something?
Never hold an Ace-10 suited over A-Q unsuited. The goal is NOT to force a Royal, but rather, maintain your bankroll long enough on a session for “better shots” at the Royal that convert. The A-10 is such a long shot that it will drain your bankroll. No bankroll = No Royal. If you had an infinite bankroll, you’d hit Royals forever. Bankroll preservation is the name of the game when “hunting” for Royals.🍎
I can't hit a jackpot in 3 years of video poker play. I've played at one casino almost 30 years without a jackpot. We figured the odds of that happening are about 1 in 70000. That's my luck lol
Happy for him! Did he have his VIP card in at the time? I'm sure he did. Where I live the machines 'miraculously' pay the black cards the highest jackpots. 😏
lucky man, picked the right machines at the right time, being a good or "perfect" video poker player has nothing to do with hitting multi royal flushes..!! you could be the best player with the biggest bankroll, and yet, you won't be able to hit a single royal flush, sometimes, you spend a royal flush's worth , and can't even hit a four of kind..!! trust me , after more than40 years of playing video poker and 2 to 3 thousand royal flushes , still lost more than $1.000.000 playing mostly 5 cents and 25 cents , i know what i am talking about.
Agreed. I've only hit 1 royal flush on video poker but I've hit probably about 20 of them on ultimate x playing $1, $5 and even $25 denominatios. Overall I've lost my entire life savings about $1 million in the past 3 years of gambling. Biggeset regret of my life. I'm 38 years old now and have to start all over again. With that 1 million I could of work part time and enjoy life.
@@rashrick1 yea, I've got deal 4 aces plus the kicker probably 100 times in the last 3 years. Have tons of pictures with jackpots. I usually play 3 hands with $1 denominations which is $30 a spin. Last Friday was my last day gambling, took out $10k from credit card and I didn't even get 1 single jackpot. Usually I would get 4-5 but eventually lose it all back by the time I leave. Now I'm $10k in credit card debt. I started first gambling in 2018 and now it's 2021 and lost $1 million. If I could do it all over again I would of bought and pay in full a new house.
You've had 2 to 3 thousand royal flushes? Wow, I think you're a bit off there. Considering a royal flush is 1 in every 40,000 hands you would have had to play 80 MILLION HANDS. Wow. I actually am laughing out loud at your lie.
Royals are crazy. I have had 4 total in my 30-year video poker career. 3 came in the last 6 months and two of those were back to back (read 2 in a 2 day period).
I got Three RF within 15 minutes. 2 on same machine (different variaion games) . I didnt believe it myself. . the casino thought I cheated but I didnt.
If the only game above 98% at my local is JB and double double is 97% along with dueces wild and horrible 6/5 BP, should I just stick to the JB 98% 9/5
Thanks for sharing. Part skill of knowing what machines to play and what cards to hold based on Bonus Poker. But also lots of luck and having that RNG on your side and hitting that deal button at the right time. I'm just not one of those lucky ones haha.
Sadly I'm not intelligent enough to understand the odds and strategies of video poker 😕 I'll never win 😢 congratulations on your wins and patience to continue against astronomical odds you have the best channel on UA-cam love the content and excitement of possibilities and probabilities of winning 😀👍😉 the game 😀👍
Yeah, I've hit about five royals in the two or so years I've been playing, and you just have to let the odds play themselves out. The best environment to see a royal happen is one where optimal strategy is being played for whatever game you're on. (This isn't directed specifically at SM, just my general take on things; I read the disclaimer lol.)
Thank you again slotmassacre. If you drive thru pahrump, nv stop by saddle west casino, they have some loose 9 6 games that you may like. I hit more then a few times but much smaller stakes then you...
Hey! You should gamble at the Casinos on the Mississippi Gulf Coast! The Island View in Gulfport and The Silver Slipper in Waveland are my go to places!
Just found your channel and subscribed 👍🏾 my sister only plays video poker - me not so much cause I never win. I’m a slot player 💯 but like watching video poker. Slot Hustler 👈🏾
( "Networking" gotta Love it!! Tid Bit Side Note a MAJORITY of Winning Royal Flushes I've personally seen and won are suites of Hearts and Spades are the most common. Yes I've hit Diamonds suite Royal and Clover suites as well although Hearts and Spades I've hit the most in 10 years. Saving suites of hearts and spades in Video poker REALLY pays OFF. Just Saying)
Correct Not the $100k but he’s gone on a few multiple royal days ok Freeplay to a $20k hot. No need to believer but He’s a net winner on VP the last several years before this.

You can't get a royal flush without the 10! I know the game is JACKS or better, but still...by not holding the 10, you again just lost your chance at a royal. I don't think going for mere JACKS or better and sacrificing potential jackpots will lengthen the play time so significantly. 2 fifths of a royal or 40 percent of a royal has got to be better than zero fifths or zero percent. Or am I missing something?
I totally agree with you. The objective is to hit a royal. One time i held a jack and ten of hearts and hit a royal.
Never hold an Ace-10 suited over A-Q unsuited. The goal is NOT to force a Royal, but rather, maintain your bankroll long enough on a session for “better shots” at the Royal that convert. The A-10 is such a long shot that it will drain your bankroll. No bankroll = No Royal. If you had an infinite bankroll, you’d hit Royals forever. Bankroll preservation is the name of the game when “hunting” for Royals.🍎
I can't hit a jackpot in 3 years of video poker play. I've played at one casino almost 30 years without a jackpot. We figured the odds of that happening are about 1 in 70000. That's my luck lol
Happy for him! Did he have his VIP card in at the time? I'm sure he did. Where I live the machines 'miraculously' pay the black cards the highest jackpots. 😏
Two different places and he is highest level at one but not where he hit the 100k
Awesome story! I’m a Triple Double guy cause that’s what my local has. Hit many jackpots in St Charles, MO
That's pretty incredible!! Congrats to john!
I got to Harrahs social all the time.. but like damn.... never see this happen LOL
I’ve heard of a few crazy runs there but this is the only one I can personally verify :)
lucky man, picked the right machines at the right time, being a good or "perfect" video poker player has nothing to do with hitting multi royal flushes..!! you could be the best player with the biggest bankroll, and yet, you won't be able to hit a single royal flush, sometimes, you spend a royal flush's worth , and can't even hit a four of kind..!! trust me , after more than40 years of playing video poker and 2 to 3 thousand royal flushes , still lost more than $1.000.000 playing mostly 5 cents and 25 cents , i know what i am talking about.
Agreed. I've only hit 1 royal flush on video poker but I've hit probably about 20 of them on ultimate x playing $1, $5 and even $25 denominatios. Overall I've lost my entire life savings about $1 million in the past 3 years of gambling. Biggeset regret of my life. I'm 38 years old now and have to start all over again. With that 1 million I could of work part time and enjoy life.
@@Ex-PokerGuy ultimate x is fun game to play, in order to win, it has to deal it to you, other wise, you will lose every time you play.
@@rashrick1 yea, I've got deal 4 aces plus the kicker probably 100 times in the last 3 years. Have tons of pictures with jackpots. I usually play 3 hands with $1 denominations which is $30 a spin. Last Friday was my last day gambling, took out $10k from credit card and I didn't even get 1 single jackpot. Usually I would get 4-5 but eventually lose it all back by the time I leave. Now I'm $10k in credit card debt. I started first gambling in 2018 and now it's 2021 and lost $1 million. If I could do it all over again I would of bought and pay in full a new house.
Exactly.I couldn't of said it better myself
You've had 2 to 3 thousand royal flushes? Wow, I think you're a bit off there. Considering a royal flush is 1 in every 40,000 hands you would have had to play 80 MILLION HANDS. Wow. I actually am laughing out loud at your lie.
Amazing win video poker here I come
$100k! Ka-ching! Congrats to that dude! ^^ 💰💰💰😱
Royals are crazy. I have had 4 total in my 30-year video poker career. 3 came in the last 6 months and two of those were back to back (read 2 in a 2 day period).
I got Three RF within 15 minutes. 2 on same machine (different variaion games) . I didnt believe it myself. . the casino thought I cheated but I didnt.
Amazing, truly amazing run. Great story. Thanks for sharing.
A dream run for sure.
If the only game above 98% at my local is JB and double double is 97% along with dueces wild and horrible 6/5 BP, should I just stick to the JB 98% 9/5
Thanks for sharing. Part skill of knowing what machines to play and what cards to hold based on Bonus Poker. But also lots of luck and having that RNG on your side and hitting that deal button at the right time. I'm just not one of those lucky ones haha.
Congratulations to John! Great win.
Only gamble big when you are ahead.
Sound thinking!🙌🏻🙌🏻🍎
It's those days, you just know some shit and hit some shit!!! Nice run john!
I wish you also got the $100K Royal!
Were they all hit on the same machine??
Sadly I'm not intelligent enough to understand the odds and strategies of video poker 😕 I'll never win 😢 congratulations on your wins and patience to continue against astronomical odds you have the best channel on UA-cam love the content and excitement of possibilities and probabilities of winning 😀👍😉 the game 😀👍
Archie Karas run…insane! Congrats to John!
Don't chase a royal. Just play proper strategy and it will come.
Yeah, I've hit about five royals in the two or so years I've been playing, and you just have to let the odds play themselves out. The best environment to see a royal happen is one where optimal strategy is being played for whatever game you're on. (This isn't directed specifically at SM, just my general take on things; I read the disclaimer lol.)
I would love to gamble with y’all one day I just got into video poker and I need some masters to show me the way
Great Run! Congrats John!
This is huge win congrats friends
Wowza! Congratulations 👏
The dream 🤩
Wow $100000.00 for your friend John
your next Andrew you’re due good luck
OH.MY.GOD. Did this just happen? Did you pee yourself?!!!
I did for him!
Is it a different playing strategy playing jacks or better vs bonus poker? Thank you in advance...
The strategy between both games is the most similar you can between two games but it does have some differences.
Thank you again slotmassacre. If you drive thru pahrump, nv stop by saddle west casino, they have some loose 9 6 games that you may like. I hit more then a few times but much smaller stakes then you...
Hey! You should gamble at the Casinos on the Mississippi Gulf Coast! The Island View in Gulfport and The Silver Slipper in Waveland are my go to places!
Gulf coast is on the radar but probably 2022
Just found your channel and subscribed 👍🏾 my sister only plays video poker - me not so much cause I never win. I’m a slot player 💯 but like watching video poker. Slot Hustler 👈🏾
Im curious over how many hands (roughly) did he hit 3 royals? Amazing
I track them....it was approximately 1,800 spins for all 3 Royal Flushes.🍎
@@johnsworldofvideopoker incredible, the odds of this happening are through the roof. Crazy luck!
@@johnsworldofvideopoker Wow! Congrats! Appreciate the reply
WOW!!! Just WOW!!!!
( "Networking" gotta Love it!! Tid Bit Side Note a MAJORITY of Winning Royal Flushes I've personally seen and won are suites of Hearts and Spades are the most common. Yes I've hit Diamonds suite Royal and Clover suites as well although Hearts and Spades I've hit the most in 10 years. Saving suites of hearts and spades in Video poker REALLY pays OFF. Just Saying)
Nice BIG win - hopefully closer to be back to even
key takeaway....John said never happened in his life. It surely helps to cover some of the long term losses :-)
Correct Not the $100k but he’s gone on a few multiple royal days ok Freeplay to a $20k hot. No need to believer but He’s a net winner on VP the last several years before this.
