Video Poker Strategy/ Best Games

[themajormt]

I am going to Vegas in May and started doing some research on what Casino's are offering and wanted to get peoples input on video poker. I have only played recreationally but have been reading up on strategy and hope to put it to use. Does anyone have any suggestions on the better games with almost 100% or + pay outs?

Is the regular jacks or better with full coins the simplest and easiest way to go? Any info would be much appreciated!

I always play Double Double bonus $1 at max bet ($5 bet). 4 aces with a 2,3,4 kicker pays 2k. I like

Have you ever played "Deuces Wild"?

Based on what I have come up with that has the best +ev

yea, I do not like dueces wild. In my life Ive had great pay on double double bonus. 4 years ago in Vegas I won $7,000 in one day playing double double bonus playing $1 max bet $5. Only exception was I hit a $2500 taxable on a $10 max bet $50 machine, the rest was all from $1 $5 max bet single line. I find double double bonus the easiest to win on, never had luck playing other

Is there anything I need to know about playing double double? I will definitely give it a try when I am out there...

Double Double has the best payouts for 4 aces. Hell 4 aces with a kicker pays out more then a royal flush. One thing I read is always ditch 2 pair if one pair is a winner. Example, if you have K K 3 10 10, just hold the 2 K's because 2 pair pays the same as 1 pair of jacks or better, you then take a shot at 4 of a kind. On max bet of $5 on $1 vid poker, 1 pair pays $5, 2 pair pays $5, 3 of a kind pays $15, full house pays $45, 4 of a kind (5's-K) pays $250. No obv is you have 2 pair like 3 3 K 8 8 you have to hold the 2 pair. Here's a nice lil Double Double jackpot I hit in late decemeber. Was dealt 3 aces, drew the 4th and the kicker. I cant find the 2nd picture, but I hit a $1200 4 aces jackpot the week before I hit the one in the picture. I was dealt A A A 7 7 and dropped the 7 7 and drew an 4th ace, no kicker tho

Wow thanks for the info... So basically always draw for the 4 of a kind and if you have one pair that pays drop whatever else. I also read that always keep pairs that pay over flush and straight draws... What casino has the best double double pay outs? I am definitely going to check it out...
