      @@glowy_vegas1643 We all prefer the 9/6 pay table but it's not as widely available as it once was. So the 9/5 is a more likely game. I'm not above playing an 8/5 but that's about it unless I'm desperate. Quarters. Thanks for the comment!

    I finally decided to print an optimal strategy chart and just carry it with me. Kind of surprising how suboptimally I was playing when it came to some pretty common situations. I would also recommend looking up a chart unique to the pay table on the machine you are playing since the decisions change as the payout for a flush or full house change.

    Sorry if I missed it but why are you not holding the 10 with a suited face card if you're playing for the royal?

    • @TheMysticGambler
      @TheMysticGambler  6 місяців тому +3

      So, when the Queen - 10 suited came up, you're right that for the optimal strategy, I should have held the 10 instead of holding only the Queen. I only did that because the simplified strategy that I was teaching did not specifically include two Royals. However, I did make a point at the 2:20 mark to say that when looking for three or four Royals that a suited 10 should not be overlooked. By saying to hold two high cards in this very basic strategy, it took care of most of the two card royals that would come up. Thanks for the question. May the good news be yours.

    Why did you not hold all 4 8’s and only held 3 for a payout of 125? I’m completely new and just subscribed to learn video poker thank you!

    • @TheMysticGambler
      @TheMysticGambler  3 місяці тому +2

      The 4 8's were picked up after I held 3 on the draw, and I was indeed paid the 125. In video poker, you're dealt one hand and get one draw from that hand after you hold the cards you want to keep. Thanks for the question.

    So is this method better than the perfect strategy or is it just an easier version of it. I Presume the perfect strategy has higher RTP.

      Can you elaborate on that? I’m really confused why you’d hold the lowers and just any 2. I’m assuming the math says holding 2 over 3 of them makes sense when looking for the pair etc but why does it matter which ones.

      Thanks, but that was 4 cards to an inside straight. In the Jacks or Better game, we don't go for inside straights. If it were a bonus game, probably yes.

      Hold all winning cards and discard the others. If no wins on the deal, just hold all pairs of anything. Start there. That's pretty easy to do isn't it? Practice and you'll get it.

    Video Poker is such a Rigged game most the time you’re giving a pair to hold once you draw again it’s nothing. Don’t gamble anything is my advice.

      We don't gamble because "most of the time." We gamble because sometimes we win and we win big. Well, actually, we also gamble because it's fun. In the case of video poker, it's us against the casino. True, the odds are in the casino's favor, but at least we have a say-so.

      While your advice not to gamble is good advice, people don't always do the right thing. So, what I say is, if you must gamble, find out what the best games are, and if a strategy applies, learn the strategy.
