10 thoughts on “Video Poker – Four Strategy Adjustments in Double Double Bonus”

1. Great video and explanation

2. I hit 4 Aces and kicker out in Vegas last month, Golden Nugget. Paid $2,000. Darn, they gave me a tax slip! Next time I will look for a game that pays $1,200 or under.

3. I'm thinking if you have aces full of 2's, 3's or 4's, you'd hold one of the small cards? 1/47 of getting 4th ace for 2k payout or is this wrong?

4. since you play normal poker too, i wonder if you every had the same idea like i had,
   using the same bet size every time is not make you "rich" 😉 .
   I tried to use a variable monemanagement, to alter the betted coins.
   Sure you first have to bet and then you cant change when you see the "flop"
   but you can count count the consequential losses, similar to card counting in black jack to bet more when its likely to win.
   Just a crude example, wait until you loose 5 hands in a row the raise your coin bet by +1 or x2 (x2 is very agressive)
   then do it util you win and then bet normal again with 1 coin.
   I have seen loosing streaks of 12 hands in a row with basic strategy in Jacks or Better.
   Try this in demo to fine tune/test this method.

5. IN DD I am dealt A J 10 of hearts A club and a 4 do I hold the 2 Aces and the 4? Just the 2 Aces? or the 3 cards for the royal draw?

6. a gutshot / inside straight…say I'm dealt 2,3,5,6, Q…triple suited…play for the straight or keep only Q

7. Are you kidding? No. 2 goes w/o saying after no. 1, but no, you wouldn't hold 2 pair unless they were 10's or under.

8. What is the proper play in Double or Triple Bonus if you are dealt a face card and a low pair tens or lower? Alot of time I keep the face card and end up getting another one. And if I keep the low pair I dont win.

9. Why would you hold an unsuited inside straight on Double Double Bonus? The straight pays no more on DDB than for Jacks or Better.

10. is double double bonus better than jacks or better in terms of winning?
