Picking the Best Online Video Poker Machine

How do you go about picking the best online video poker machine to play? You might think that looking for the best payouts is the answer but that is not always the case. Let’s look at some things to consider when choosing the best online video poker machine.

It makes sense to play the machines with the best payouts but the problem is that to get the best payouts you have to play perfect strategy. And that is not always easy and the strategy for one machine may not be the same as another. The strategy you play for Jacks or Better is not going to be the same on Deuces Wild or Double Bonus Poker. It is pretty easy to play perfect strategy when playing Jacks or Better but it is not as easy when playing Double Bonus Poker. You may actually be better off playing Jacks or Better simply because it is easier. It sounds good to play the higher paying machine but if you can’t play perfect strategy you are better off playing Jacks or Better even at a lower payout. The good news about picking the right video poker machine is that the payouts are listed right on the screen. You want machines that are 9-6 for Jacks or Better which means you get 9-1 for a full house and 6-1 for a flush.

You definitely want to keep an eye on the pay tables when picking the best online video poker machine but don’t let that be your only factor.
