Video Poker – Advice to Keep in Mind


Electronic poker is an easy game to learn to play with skill, so do take the time to learn the general draw strategy, as well as the best electronic poker machines to gamble on. In addition, the tips below will provide you a greater opportunity of winning and above all make the game more fun.

  • Don’t maintain a kicker (a backup card, usually an ace) with a pair. This lowers your odds of getting a three of a kind.
  • Be sure that the "hold" button shows for all the cards you want to hold before hitting the draw button.
  • Be certain the machine has a "hold" button. Almost all do, but a couple use a "discard" button instead, where you indicate the cards you wish to discard by hitting the button in place of the cards you want to hold.
  • Take some time and look at the draw chart provided above for each hand. 1 of the key advantages of gambling on a machine is that no one will rush you. Take all the time you want. Ponder each hand through, enjoy a drink, the machine will always sit there waiting!
  • If you are a beginner, select the smallest denomination of video poker machine you can find and bet on it until you are accustomed and comfortable with the drawing strategy.

Follow these tips and your bankroll will last longer and you just might be the player to get that 600,000 to one odds royal flush!
