I am not sure which game in the casino gives the player the best odds to win, break even or reduce your losses.
The craps playes say they have the opportunity to do all three as do the video poker players.
In the casino most crap games can start at 5 or 10 or 25 dollars per throw so the learning curve will be too expensive for me as a now semi-retired on more of a fixed income individual.
In the casino there are video poker machines where you can play starting at 5 cents. Clearly this game is the winner for the learning curve expenses.
I chose the Jacks or Better and Bonus poker as the first games to learn.
In this game that I played the game (above) – the payout for the full house is 7 and for the flush 5 and most video players refer to this as a 7 – 5 game.
There is a formula for calculating the payback that the player can expect from this game and this one is listed at 98 %.
Just for background info most slots by local gambling rules are set between 85 and 93%.
Most of the video poker machines are set between 92 and 99.5%.
Here is an online site that lists the formulas for the video poker payback percentages and playing strategies.
