A little puffed up consideration of Video poker being the crack of gambling. It’s not. I’ll reserve that for craps.

Used to be a great website, all text up until a year or so ago that gave you the correct strategy for every type of video poker. Now it seems to be all graphical with adverts and pop-ups and hosted on a really slow server.

wizardofodds.com (slow loading, may have to go to cached page) Not all machines are beatable, The only ones I find beatable are deuces wild with parimutuel jackpots with the jackpot being over $1500 for a quarter player like me. As you go higher in denominations the payouts scale better and you might find some of the 5 card draw 8/6’s that I think have a small 1% profit if played perfectly.

Not worth grinding $120k per hour because you can take some really big swings. It’s nice to put in a few bucks though knowing that you’re playing +EV, but not enough to try and make a living out of it (some do).
