However, unlike slots, video poker offers players the incredible opportunity to use math and skill to actively influence the outcome.
If played with absolutely perfect strategy, certain video poker variations offer some of the highest payout percentages in the entire casino.
The casino adjusts its house edge entirely by changing the payouts for specific hands, usually the Full House and the Flush.
A ‚9/6‘ machine pays 9 coins for a Full House and 6 coins for a Flush, yielding an incredible 99.54% Return to Player (RTP).
Playing based on ‚gut feeling‘ or superstition will instantly destroy the incredibly low house edge you worked hard to find.
Casinos legally allow you to hold a printed strategy chart in your hand while playing video poker; they do not consider it cheating.
If you are willing to study the charts and hunt for the right machines, it is undeniably the smartest bet on the digital floor.
