In both cases I was up considerably while on a good run by the end of my run on the machines. Twice now I have used these machine types to earn enough tier credits to renew my Diamond status with Caesars Rewards. One big thing about the games I like though is it smooths out volatility when I have a goal in mind. For instance, if you hold four cards to a royal flush on a 50-hand machine, your odds are reasonably good to get a royal flush because the overall odds at that point are 1 in 47. When you get to 50/100 hands, it can get interesting because you get so many chances to make something happen. So if you have three hands, three outcomes are played five hands, five outcomes, etc. Standard multi-hand video poker machines tend to work the same way – a hand is dealt, you keep your cards (which are retained for every hand on the board), and then the hand is played out x times, x being however many hands are on the screen. Among my best runs have been playing on 50 and 100-hand Video Poker machines usually playing Jacks or Better, which is my normal game of choice. I also have had some remarkable runs on the game.
I’ve always been into Video Poker, and find it relaxing to play.
