Note: A complete strategy for this game is pinned to the top of the "comments" section below. In this and future video tutorials, I will “teach through play.” I will play every hand exactly as the cards were dealt. Nothing is "staged" or "set up" in any way; you can trust my reported results are accurate and there is no "cheating" of any kind.

Every video in this series (after the first 10) will be based on a recorded session of approximately 1000 hands of Video Poker. I will then condense this recording down to a 15-20 minute video presentation in which I choose certain hands to present to the viewing audience based on being educational, interesting, entertaining, or any combination thereof.

One way to “beat the house” is to keep your eyes open for hard-to-find, higher than normal progressive jackpots. Usually, a progressive video poker jackpot will reset at $1,000 on quarters, and $4000 on dollars after it gets hit, but if a machine goes long enough without delivering a Royal Flush, occasionally the jackpot can get high enough to make a machine temporarily over 100% EV (expected value)...and in rare cases…A LOT over 100% EV. These likely will be discussed further in future videos. But the problem with chasing these jackpots should be obvious: you never know where they might be, they are hard to find, and you can waste a lot of time looking for them. Even if you happen to know about a large jackpot…you might not be able to get a seat, or it might get hit by someone else before you get there or shortly thereafter.

Fortunately, there are a few “flat pay” (no progressive jackpot) variants of video poker that have over 100% EV. The best variant that can still be found is the topic of our discussion and the focus of this video: Full Pay Deuces Wild (FPDW). FPDW has an EV of approximately 100.7% using an “expert” strategy. Unfortunately, you are very unlikely to find FPDW in a denomination any higher than $1.25 per “pull” (5 credits @ 25 cents per credit = $1.25 per play). At an easily reached pace of 800 hands per hour, you’re looking at averaging about 7 bucks per hour in the long run. Enough to make you rich? Certainly not… but it’s a far cry better than losing… and if you like to play anyway… why not play with an advantage? Plus… if you add in all the points and comps that you can get with a casino’s club card.... it can all add up to a nice little chunk of change.

Despite what some so-called “experts” say… ALWAYS play with a casino club card if one is available. You’re just giving away “free money” if you don’t! Many casinos send out special monthly mailers with free goodies and/or promotions to their frequent slot players. Much of the time these juicy promotions will only be available to the players who receive these mailers. And A LOT of the time, the promotions are worth more than the points on the card! So peruse your casino mailers carefully; they definitely should not be looked at as junk mail. You'll likely find some promotion(s) that offer HUGE advantages. And every once in a while you might even get a free toaster or waffle iron; who would want to miss out on something like that?

One thing you should look out for: if you are playing mostly because of some juicy promotion, make absolutely certain that your machine qualifies! Or perhaps if it does qualify, but you might be getting less "credit" towards the promo, or fewer drawing tickets, or whatever else the case may be. Certainly Full Pay Deuces Wild can be played anytime and does not "need" a promotion to be beaten. Regardless, it would be an awful shame to play a promotion for days thinking, for example, that you had a great chance to win a cruise, only to find out later that the fine print clearly states (as long as you have a magnifying glass): Full pay video poker machines do not qualify for this promotion. Ask your slot host for details. Always verify what you are playing for!

This is what you are looking for; the pay table (in coins) on a standard 5-coin max Full Pay Deuces Wild video poker machine is as follows:

ROYAL FLUSH: 4000
FOUR DEUCES: 1000
WILD ROYAL FLUSH: 125
FIVE OF A KIND: 75
STRAIGHT FLUSH: 45
FOUR OF A KIND: 25
FULL HOUSE: 15
FLUSH: 10
STRAIGHT: 10
THREE OF A KIND: 10

If your machine has a different MAX BET, just make certain that the ratios are the same. For example, on a 10-coin machine, the payouts should be exactly double.

Know your pay table! Differences that may appear to be trivially small can cause catastrophic differences to your EV. Check every pay on the machine and make certain it is EXACTLY what you are looking for.
