Playing video poker is a game a chance but you can have make odds in your favor by which games you play. Playing jacks or better video poker may payout more often but chances of hitting a big win is less likely. My personal favorites are double double bonus poker and triple bonus video poker. These video poker games have high payouts on 4 of a kind and I have hit several jackpots of 40k each. Hitting big jackpots like this does require a bigger bet, playing on ten dollar machines but even the five dollar machines you can hit some very good jackpots. Hitting four aces is more likley than hitting the royal flush which increases your odds of winning a major jackpot.
Video poker wins will come in streaks, when the machine is ready to hit hopefully you will be on the machine betting big to get that ultimate win. Not to long ago I watch someone playing video poker and she decided not to put in more money so only bet 1 credit and hit the royal flush which did not pay out hardly anything since the win is on max bet. Some people might say well if she was betting higher should probably would not hit the royal, this is not true the machine will payout even if higher bet when it is ready to hit. I have seen many wins on royal flushes anywhere from 20k and up. Winning at video poker is being on the right machine at the right time.
