There are 3 simple types of video-poker machines:

* Jacks or Better

* Deuces Wild

* Jokers Wild

To keep things simple, we suggest you play only the Jacks or Better machines. The payouts are typically better and also the draw strategy is much more straightforward.

What you’re truly looking for can be a Jacks or Much better device with a very good payout schedule. The ideal pay-out schedule pays 9 to 1 for full house and 6 to One for a flush. In gambler’s terms, this is called a "Nine-Six" machine, for obvious reasons. Several years ago, you could uncover several of these in most casinos, but they are now very hard to find because of the favorable (to you, not the casino!) payout table.

Often, the ideal pay-out you will be able to uncover is the next ideal one particular, which pays Eight to 1 for any complete home and 5 to 1 for a flush. Even so, this really is a very good payout table if it’s also a "4-of-a-kind" bonus device. A bonus machine pays extra odds for hitting four-of-a- kind for particular cards, like 2s, 3s, or 4s, or 3 other cards. The payout schedule has this data, so be certain to read the payout schedule carefully before you bet on any device.

Be sure to avoid machines that just pay 1 to 1 for two pairs. This ought to be the payout for any single pair of jacks or better. 2 pair should pay Two to One. You cash will go much quicker if two pairs pays just One to One.

Look for these pay-out tables and you will be competing with casino edge against you of 1 or 2percent – some with the greatest odds within the casino.
