A Winning System Part One

Last time I wrote about mail ordersystems. This week I would like to share with you some advice on developinga system that can make you a winner or at least help you stay close to evenwith the Casinos. First let me state that what I am going to recommend ismy opinion alone. I have absolutely no financial incentive for therecommendations I am making.

There is no magic potion or crystal pendant you can wear to make you a winner,but with a little work on your part you can come out ahead. This system isnot original. I have studied all the information I could and am now recommendingwhat has worked for me. I will supply you with my blueprint and a list ofthe materials I have used. It will be up to you to decide how best make useof them to fit your needs.

My “Blueprint” for developing a winning system consists of twobooks and a software program. These are the materials you will need.

By combining comps and video poker you can come out ahead at the casino.All you need is to understand how to do this. Comps are the way a casinopays you back for your patronage. They can come in the form of cash backor free rooms and food. By learning how the comp system works you can makesure you are getting the most return for your gambling dollar. In “TheFrugal Gambler” Jean Scott who has been called the ‘Queen ofComps’ explains how the comp system works. She tells you how to comeout ahead by taking advantage of promotions and slot clubs benefits. Mostimportantly Jean explains how to combine comps and video poker to make youa winner. Her comp advice is practical regardless of what casino games youplay.

Certain Video Poker games actually have a payback of over 100% when you playproper basic strategy.. You might ask“ How can a casino offer a gamelike that?” The answer is actually simple. The over 100 percent paybackis for perfect play. The majority of people that play video poker do notknow the proper basic strategy for the games they play. They rely on hunchesor gut feeling instead of the proven mathematical choices they must make.You also must play the maximum coins to achieve the bonus jackpot for theroyal flush. Most royal flushes pays $1,000 for the five coin maximum bet.If you play one coin you get $62.50. You just lost $937.50. and the casinohas saved money by not having to pay out extra bonus money.

In his book, “Video Poker - Optimum Play”, Dan Paymar teaches youhow to play correctly. His book focuses on three of the most popular games.Jacks or Better, Deuces Wild and Joker Poker. You will learn the proper strategyfor these games. Dan also shows you how to determine the payback percentageof a machine and bankroll considerations you will need.

After learning how to play, you must practice until you can play perfectly.You can do this on your computer at home with “Bob Dancer PresentsWinPoker” software. Bob Dancer is a video poker expert and writer whocollaborated with Zamzow Software to develop the finest Video Poker Tutoron the market. The program comes loaded with 15 of the most popular VP games.It will alert you when you make a mistake in playing strategy. You can also

analyze

any game or hand. This program is the first of its kind designedspecifically for “Windows”. A demo version can be downloaded foryour evaluation.. If you are serious about learning video poker, the fullversion is a necessity.

Unfortunately not all casinos offer “Full Pay” video poker games.These are the games with the 100+ percent payback. But by learning how todetermine the payback and knowing how to use the comp system you can sometimesstill gain the edge.

In the next few weeks I will give a more in depth review of each one of theseproducts. I have found that in MY case these products have paid for themselvesmany times over. Only you can decide if its right for you. Next time I willshare a book review of “The Frugal Gambler”. Followed by a reviewof “Video Poker -Optimum Play” and then conclude with a reviewof Bob Dancer Presents WinPoker”.

Until next time, remember:
Luck comes and goes...Knowledge stays forever.
