Any tips for VLT video poker machines?
Mike
Dear Mike,
Yes, one tip. Treat them like slot machines.
Unlike the Class III video poker machines you find in Las Vegas, Tunica, Atlantic City and other places, VLT video poker machines do not determine the results of hands played on them. The outcome of a hand is determined by a central server and sent to the machine.
Because the results are determined by a central server, playing with a strategy is useless. The outcome of your hand is predetermined. In addition, you can ignore the paytable. These machines are slot machines, not video poker machines.
Best of luck in and out of the casinos,
John
