love your videos John !! Dale and Suan
Thank you, Dale & Susan. I’m so glad that you enjoy them!🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
Missed the warm hearted commentary. Glad it came out ok.
Thank you. Glenn.🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
Love to watch you play! Some people talk too much and don’t say anything 😱blah,blah,blah😂😂😂
Thank you, Teresita. Happy Thanksgiving!😁🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
ty for the 1000 coin rule
I’m glad it’s working out for you. More often than not, you’ll get favorable results with it at all coin denominations. It should also be backed-up by 2 more 1,000 coin reserve bankrolls, just in case the 1st one really “tanks” on a session. If the 1st 1,000 coin bankroll “tanks”. It’s best to leave it at that for the day and then come back on a different day with 2,000 coins. Play a different casino, or a different machine, and play with a 2,000 coin bankroll at a higher denomination than the first one. More than likely, you’ll win back the 1st “tanked” bankroll. But be careful with it.😁🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
Great!
Thank you. I’ve had about 8 players send me pictures of their $2,000, $4,000, & multiple $8,000 Royal Flush wins since they’ve switched to 1,000 coin bankrolls, practice on a simulator that “warns on mistakes”, and play only 8/5 Bonus Poker. Try it and see!🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
Your videos are very professional. I enjoy the quiet time as well, other that the rooster croaking behind you lol.
Thank you, Char. I know….those Caveman Keno games are annoying being mixed in with all the video poker games. Video poker players like peace and quiet in order to concentrate on the game. Thank you for subscribing, for your comments, and for your viewership!🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
Been waiting on this one. Love the intro.
Did you see 25:52 John?
I sure did….🤣! I was viewing through the phone and I totally spaced on it. My tripod that I ordered is on its way, so I should be able to minimize those knuckle-head moves! So Funny. But just goes to show you that you can make mistakes and still make money!🤑
Thank you, Andrew. Just modeling your impressive work!🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
I mostly play 3 or 5 hand 8/5 Bonus
.50 video poker because I don't want to play all day and get my 4,000 coin in per night for a comped room and some food at S.P. What do you think? Is there a difference than single line? Maybe it's just bad luck but I don't seem to do that well lately unless I hot a royal. Thanks.
Some of my friends who play multi-line games tell me that it smoothes out the volatility of the game. I’ve never really ventured out very far from JOB, BP, BPD, & DDB. It is my hope with this channel that I’m able to explore those other games to expand my knowledge of video poker and to likewise broaden my channel’s appeal to the viewers. Once I get out and give the multi-line games a try, I’ll give you my 1st impressions of it. Thank you for watching.🌎
Good video! Sounds like a dinosaur was going off at times. Someone must have been playing Keno close to you :-)
Yes….unfortunately in that section of the casino, there is a Caveman Keno machine. Just a side note. Video Keno has the worst pay back percentage that than any casino game.
What is the Trex noise in the background?
Unfortunately this bank of machines was located in the midst of Pterodactyl Keno machines. Those screeching games are so annoying!🤣
Caveman keno it’s the most annoying game.
So that’s what it’s called! Ditto!😂🌎
Old keno.
Nice work John and great profit as well…
Great insight keep poppin em out my man.
Where will be in Vegad on Dec 10, I will be there then , love to meet say hi, Chris from LA
I’ll be there Wednesday & Thursday, but I’ll be gone by early morning on the 9th.
Hi John-was just going back through your archives to pick up pointers in between your videos. I noticed you got really quiet in this one and maybe a little fatigued? That keno game Tetradactyl must have been driving you crazy. Ive gotten to where I will set them to poker before I sit down. Otherwise after 10 minutes of that screech, I want to do an Elvis Presley on that machine! Lol!
Continued luck and good fortunes!
Perhaps there is a little “video producing fatigue” in the making of this video since I had to invest countless hours getting the music right in the end credits. The music track itself was not long enough to cover the length of the video, so I chopped the music sound track up into multiple sections and re-spliced them together to make a loop out of it to get it as seamless (up to a point) as I could. I make these videos entirely on my iPhone and there is no SMPTE time code to precision edit sound tracks. It’s all done by eye, ear, and touch to synchronize a soundtrack that’s been cut into 10+ pieces and then put them back together again. That 1.25 minutes of music track alone (at the end of the video) took 24 hours to edit to get it “acceptably close” for use in the video. By the time I get around to doing the voice-over, I’m sometimes a little tired especially since I have a self-imposed deadline to meet. I’m trying to produce 10 videos this month. There is actually quite a lot of work and effort that goes into crafting a John’s World of Video Poker production. Thank you for liking my channel and the high regard that I have for production values. And, Yes, the Pterodactyls screeching behind me can be quite annoying at times. Setting the machines to video poker to eliminate that cacophony, sounds like a great idea. I’ll try that!😁🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
Is there a reason why you hit play max button after you get trips or better?
No, and it in no way affects or influences the RNG of the machine. The RNG is constantly shuffling the cards, regardless of which buttons are being pressed. Once in a while, I just hit that button without rhyme or reason.😁🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
Love the vids....love to hit the casinos with you guys
Thank you for your comments and you’re welcome to hang with us anytime. We’re in Vegas Feb 24-27.🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
4:09 Wrong Play. Proper play was 4.36 return (TJQK) vs your 2.89 return of (8TJ suited).
You’re absolutely right and that was a major error too on my part. I certainly wasn’t giving much thought to the cards on that move! 4 to an open ended straight is certainly a much much stronger play than only 3 cards to a straight flush with a “gap” in it. That was my very 1st outing to make a video in a casino (no tripod & hand held). I was more focused on holding the camera still than anything else. Even in my more recent videos I’ve been making novice mistakes too because I’m not as focused on the cards. So it’s back to simulator practice for me and now that I can use a tripod, I will start to focus more on the cards and strategy than on “making a video”. But for sure that was a real bozo selection on my part!😝 As you will see in my more recent videos, I usually stop the video to highlight and point out my errors so that people learn from my mistakes too. I don’t necessarily point out or catch all the errors because it takes a lot of time to do so. But I try to catch most of them so that people know that I’m not a perfect player by any means. And as a matter of fact, I am quite grateful for your pointing out the errors too because it helps other players (including myself) to “think” about the cards and to work their way through to the correct play. So thank you for that and for any other errors that you may point out in the future. I appreciate your knowledge and accurate insights in your comments that contribute to the greater good of myself and the viewers of this channel. Keep up the great work!🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
@@johnsworldofvideopoker It's my pleasure to learn and watch from your videos and excellent commentary. I might point out, I have learned several important things that have made me a stronger player. Previously, I never gave much thought to switching machines when one starts to run ice cold. I can say for sure, it has saved my session to move to another machine on more than one occasion. Although it doesn't always work, it's better than to watch the thing keep tanking like somebody pulled the floor out from under it. So the probability seems in favor of a move, most of the time, in my opinion. A lot of times a fresh start can rejuvenate a slow payout session.
You had a SIX more errors in this video 😛! Not to worry, as I know you were mostly focused on holding the camera steady. I'll give you the time stamps and correct play:
1) 4:32 AK suited. 2) 4:57 7,8,9,T 3) 25:49 3's 4) 25:59 JAT suited 5) 27:46 JK suited 6) 28:32 JQ Continued best of luck and you are my favorite video poker channel by far, so keep the videos rolling like the Royal Flushes!
Hi John, Great Video - somehow I didn't see this until today. Quick Question - starting with a 1,000 coin bankroll, when can we move up to the next denomonation ? is it when we have 1,000 coin of the new denom ? other ?
On a serious session where I intend to put in a real effort to hit the Royal Flush, I always start with a 1,000 coin bankroll of whatever coin denomination that I'm playing. In my experience, (more often than not), a 1,000 coin bankroll allows you to play (without holding back) since it takes a while to vanquish a 1,000 coin bankroll (in most cases). All I'm looking for really, is to see how the "bottom of the pay table" performs (JoB, 2 pair, trips, straights, flushes, & full house). As long as all those are quite regular (especially the 2 pair hand) then I know I can stay on the machine for quite a while. Then all I do is focus on "maintaining the bankroll" long enough as all the 1, 2, 3, & 4, to the Royal combinations pass through until one of them converts into a Royal Flush win. To maintain the bankroll, I may have to lower the denomination to last longer & then step it back up to the original bankroll denomination after a good hit on the lower denomination. Also, if the session starts out with a great hit (4 Aces, Straight Flush, or 1, 2, 3, or 4's), then I'll go to the next denomination above the original starting coin denomination. The Royal may just show-up early on that next higher denomination and you'll be glad that you took the opportunity to "risk" that house money (that you just won right off the bat). If the pair hand keeps rolling you along, I stay on that higher denomination. If I "lose" the house money bankroll, then I step the denomination backdown to the original coin denomination and continue to play. By managing the bankroll in that way, you will in most cases have a bankroll that lasts longer. And hopefully that longevity translates into a Royal Flush win (especially at the higher denominations that you may have switched-up to. If the machine is just raging with good hits, I'll keep upping the coin denomination to the highest coin denomination possible. On serious sessions, I always play on full pay machines (8/5 Bonus Poker) with the most coin denominations on one machine as possible. That means machines that feature: $1, $2, $5, $10, $20 coin denominations or machines that have $25, $50, & $100 coin denominations. You never want to be on a machine that's on a once in a lifetime wild run & you're unable to keep raising the coin denominations. Chances are on wild runs you'll either hit the Royal Flush or rack-up so much money by continually upping the coin denomination that you "don't need the Royal"! Good luck with your play. Please keep me posted on your wins, and where you play.🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
@@johnsworldofvideopoker Thanks so much John for the detailed response. It was very helpful. The closest casino to me is a tribal casino so it doesn't have any good paytables on VP. I love playing in Vegas and go several times a year - I like Gold Coast, South Point, Orleans, and Ballys, Cromwell and Caesars Palace on the strip. I play more like your buddy Big Cats. I like Ult X Double Super times pay etc. Thanks Again for taking the time to answer my question. PS I wanted to also thank you for the amazing recap of your trip out East. My son is in the USMC and was stationed in Quantico for a bit. He actually got married a couple years ago near the reflecting pond you showed in your video. Loved seeing Arlington and the Iwo Jima memorial as well. If you haven't already done so and you get back out that way take a trip to the Marine Museum just North of the Quantico base (about 1 hour south of DC). It's really a neat museum and a lovely setting. Take care
You’re welcome. And thank you for raising a son that understands that serving America in her armed services is the greatest honor and privilege of all, particularly in the U.S. Marine Corps. Semper Fi! I served twice. Once as an enlisted man in the U.S. Navy on board the flight deck of the aircraft carrier, U.S.S. Forrestal, at the end of the Vietnam War & once again later, as an Infantry Officer, in the early to mid 80’s. America is grateful for your son’s service to our country and makes me proud!🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
No matter what strategy, you cannot beat the house edge long term. Long term can indeed be a very long amount of time, which is why some people can turn in a profit even for what seems a pretty long run. In statistics, there are always the outliers. It's a very different story for most people. Be ready to part with whatever you are gambling with.
That being said, a short term positive run could be 10+ years or more as it has been for me & others. I’m not emotionally invested in gambling at all. In fact, I hardly ever go to a casino. If the game “turns on me” (who knows when that will ever happen?) I’ll just continue on with other pursuits that are more important to me anyway; such as mastering guitar, songwriting, writing a book (from my already 3,000 page diary), traveling the world, acquiring my 4th foreign language, translating Latin, dabbling in the stock market, etc. But as long as the game is positive, I’ll keep on playing it. And I wouldn’t be surprised if that lasts a lifetime. By the same token, I could care less if it ended tomorrow. There’s plenty of other adventures and mountains to scale in life. Life itself in all its aspects is a gamble and I intend to live it on the leading edge. Fortune favors the bold.🌎
@@johnsworldofvideopoker Sounds like you have it figured out. I guess it's important to point out that one should not measure the number of years, but rather the number of hands when talking about longevity. Huge huge difference when you play 4000 hands a week, vs 400 ( as an example). If you limit your play then naturally you will have plenty of losing sessions that you will have to endure until you hit a win streak. Of course, another variable when examining the fabulous wins like $100,000 is how much you are risking. Playing at $25 denom vs $1 can't be compared. Again, my point is people can grind it out for 100k+ hands and not hit any royal (and that is tough on low variance games like JOB). Psychologically, it is very hard to discount losses and people start making bad decisions, which only favors the house.
Can’t believe you listened to that caveman keno machine screeching all that time.
They should have a separate area for Caveman Keno unto itself, just like some casinos that have the, Buffalo slots, all in one area. Video poker used to be in their own alcove or video poker area (away from loud crap tables, blackjack tables, or other slot machines). Caveman Keno is the bane of video poker players. They’re very loud, distracting, and annoying. I don’t mind the game itself, I mind that they intrude upon video poker which is a game of skill requiring concentration and a quiet environment.🤷🏻♂️😁🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
This one is a good example of QUAD poverty.
I sure could have used one or two of those! The Quads usually show-up (on average) about once every 425 hands, so this early on, it didn’t faze me all that much that there were n’t any. And then again, I’ve had sessions on $2 coin machines where it was “Quad-Crazy” and hit so many Quads in 2 hours, that I’ve gone from $225 in free play to $11,250. So, you just never know. But when playing on high denominations (like on some of my other videos) you need at least, 2 or 3 Quads, to have a real go at it. Next time!😁🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
At my local casino, the machine only pays back 1 for 2 pair.
Which casino is this? There’s no reason to play Bonus Poker if it doesn’t pay 10 on 2 pair. You either have to switch to 9/6 JoB or 9/6 DDB.
@@johnsworldofvideopoker Plainridge Park Casino in MA. There are only 8/5 machines here. I literally checked all of them. The DDB is a 9/5 but still only pays the same for 2 pair as Jacks or better.
9/5 DDB would be your best bet then. It has a 97.87% pay back which is a full 1% less than 9/6 DDB but it is better than your JoB & BP if either of those don’t pay 2 for 1 on 2 pairs. I really feel sorry for you folks that are being ripped off on video poker. My local casino here in SoCal (Pechanga) is full pay on all games at all denominations from 5¢ to $100 coin. Your casino already makes a profit from just from a normal pay table as it is. Then they make even more money on players errors to boot. But for them to factor in an even worse pay table…that is really a slap in the face and an extreme amount of greed on their part. Hopefully you have somewhere else you can go. Keep me posted. Take care.🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
@@johnsworldofvideopoker Thanks! The Indian casino's in CT are about a 2 hour drive for me. I will have to research the availability of 6/9 machines at those two locations.
9/6 JoB, 8/5 BP, 8/6 BPD, & 9/6 DDB. I’ll research a few things on this end to get back with you & let you know. Cheers!🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
Is it really advisable to play 1000 coins of the denom you choose?
If you’re a seasoned player of your specific game and well-practiced on a simulator that “warns on mistakes”, then 1,000 coins (in my experience with 8/5 Bonus Poker) has been enough coinage to see wether or not the game is rolling along well enough to make a go of things. The 1,000 coin minimum is usually (though not always) enough coins to survive the minor ups & downs in volatility before something good hits, such as: multiple full houses, or quads, or a straight flush, or even a Royal Flush. As a player, it is up to you to know, wether or not, the session is going well enough to surge ahead (with good or great hands) or to retreat, or lower the coin denomination, or to cash-out (if it’s not going well) before you lose your entire bankroll. I have hit 17 Royal Flushes in under 20 minutes or less using 1,000 coins. When that simultaneously occurs on high coin denominations, you can walk away with big money. It’s not a guarantee of course, (because it can go the other way too), but at least 1,000 coins will give you a fighting chance. It’s up to you to adjust this initial bankroll (up or down) according to your own skill level in: managing your bankroll, being able to properly determine card selection, and the suitability of game choice (low volatility). If 1,000 coins seems like a big risk to you, then that’s ok, just go to a lower coin denomination to where you feel that 1,000 coins is not risky. I’m as comfortable playing 1,000 coins on a 50¢ coin denomination as I would be with a 1,000 coins on a $50 coin denomination. The odds are the same either way, but the scale of the win would be 100X larger in this example. Try it at a lower coin denomination in which you feel comfortable with the 1,000 coins. One caveat: if you’re not well practiced on a simulator to minimize your errors, then you could be throwing your money away and may require an even larger number of coins to off-set poor play. Practice, Practice, Practice. Practice at home & Win in the casino.🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
@@johnsworldofvideopoker what's your limit on winning or losing? All your bank roll or half your bank roll? When you win half your bank do you stop?
Great question and you reminded me of something that I left out. You’ll need two 1,000 coin “backup bankrolls” played on an even higher denomination (usually) to get back to “even” should your 1st 1,000 coin bankroll “tank” and go right down the drain. If hop around from machine to machine on 8/5 BP until I find one that is rolling along. It the 1,000 coin bankroll stays relatively even for a long time, I won’t leave the machine until I hit the Royal (even if that means playing 12 hours straight on the same machine!). Why leave a machine that’s NOT taking your bankroll away from you? It’s only a matter of time if it’s staying relatively even before enough Royal Flush combinations pass through and one of them converts. I’m willing to risk that entire 1,000 coin bankroll to ruin. But a lot of times it’ll have a few good hits that it gets me back to the same 1,000 coins that I started with so that I can keep playing. So I continue on. If I lose that 1,000 coin bankroll, I quit for the day, go practice on a simulator a bit, sleep on it, and then when I’m ready, I go at it again the next day or week later with another 1,000 coins but of a higher denomination to “win back” that 1st 1,000 coin bankroll that was played at a lower denomination. That’s why you’ll need 3 “reserve bankrolls” to survive the swings (volatility).
how did the bank roll jump from 400 to 755.00 at 34:29 ?
I did not use a tripod when filming the session. I filmed it handheld, which is very tedious and hard on the shoulders to hold an iPhone up to record while trying to hold it steady as well. So I cashed out the $400, then decided that I would put the $400 back in, except this time, I would switch to the $1 coin denomination and hope for a lucky hit. I had no intention of filming it, but when the 4 Aces hit, I quickly grabbed the phone to film whatever I could of that hit. (I was probably down $60 or so when it hit). So I continued filming at that point a little. It only ended up in the video because of the 4 Aces hit, otherwise, it never would’ve been shown in the video. Thank you for your comment.🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
@@johnsworldofvideopoker oh nice i tried your method and was going from .50 cent to dollars and hit 2k 2aaaa i love your content very educational and artistically done . good job
@pkbby1 Thank you so much. Congratulations on your fortuitous win!🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
Keep 'em up. I watch you and Andrew all the time. Went to downtown Vegas this week. First morning, played BP .50 for 20 minutes and hit 2 quads. Bumped it up to 1$ Double Double and hit a spade Royal within 20 minutes. 4K was a great way to start the trip. Next time I go, I hope to see you at Red Rocks!
Thank you for supporting our channels with your viewership. Congratulations. That sounds like a great trip to downtown! How many cards to the Royal did you have to hold to hit it?🌎
@@johnsworldofvideopoker I had all but the 10 (on the far right), so I held 4 and bingo! I couldn't believe it because I had hit a bonus bet royal about 2 weeks before playing 3 card poker in Oklahoma. That was a big one, too- 5k on a $5 bet.
I like the wind chimes but the dinosaur growling was a bit much 😂
You said it, Vanessa! Sometimes those screeching Pterodactyl sound effects come along most unexpectedly and makes what little hair I have, stand on end! It is most annoying and I wish I knew how to shut them off. Dinosaur games and video poker games do NOT belong in the same room together. I’ll try a quieter area next time. It was 5X louder in person than what you hear in the video!🥴🌎
@@johnsworldofvideopoker lol I thought it was a rooster
A rooster may have been better! Thanks for watching!😂🌎
& sometimes a little good luck doesnt hurt
Most definitely a little luck goes a long way and is an element of the game. One could theoretically play every hand “perfectly” and lose their whole bankroll if it weren’t for luck too. Those 2 elements combined make video poker such an exciting game to play. I appreciate your viewership and commentary!🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
Enjoyed watching your play. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you, 3rdCoastSlots, for tuning-in. I’ll be watching!🌎
You keep the AK of clubs not AKJT
Yes, those were bone-head selections. If you include a time-stamp of the hand in question, it will show-up in blue and in that way it helps all who read your comments to touch the time-stamp and it will take them to the exact spot in the video to see the erroneous play. Thank you!🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
Good job. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you, Cheryl. With time and experience all this should get better and easier.🌎
Great video! Cannot believe it's only your second video! Keep it up!
That was such a sweet thing to say, Kathy! Thank you for your positive and supportive energy. That touched me.😊🌎
Another great video. Thanks for sharing some tips! I wonder when can I build my swimming pool 🤔😅
Oh, I have no doubt that you will. And you have the perfect backyard for it!🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
Great video! Looking forward to more!
Thank you, Allison. I’ll be posting some play soon, the tripod I ordered just arrived. I appreciate your comments and viewership!🌎
Great video and gorgeous backyard. Looking forward to your vp journey. And Lucky Pete too🍀🍀🍀
Thank you, Dakota. The next phase on the backyard will be the landscaping: Italian cypress trees, Japanese boxwood, and various potted fruit trees, and the like.🌎
very nice video john love your back yard!!gd luck cant wait till the next one..
Thank you, Michael.🌎
Hi John! Somehow found this early video of you. Nice to see money coming out of Pechanga (instead of going in) If that is your neighborhood.... Wow, its beautiful! I live in an old neighborhood in Torrance. Funny thing is the house across the street from me just sold for almost a million after one week. Glad you put some of your winnings into your backyard. You get to enjoy it everyday. My son who is in Japan is hoping I win some money to fly him back home for the summer. Now I have a goal to save up for. See you at Pechanga on New Years!
Thanks for watching all my videos. And yes, I will see you soon at Pechanga.🌎
Enjoyed the video bud, keep'em coming.
Thank you, Doc!
Nice neighborhood, nice yard! Nice VP vlog with a win.
Thank you, DaiJo. As I become more adept at the “mechanics of film” it is my goal to introduce Hollywood-like productions. (At least “my version” of it.😊🌎
Thank you for recording and posting! You're involved with a great group of guys, and all of us watching! Looking forward to the future of your channel.
Thank you for watching our channels. And I appreciate your patience while I learn the nuts and bolts of editing, graphics, soundtracks, titles, captioning, and the myriad of other items required to produce suitable content. I’m behind the curve in those skill sets but I hope (through networking with others & constructive viewer insights) to polish things up quite a bit in time. Fortunately, I have Slotmassacre, Bigkats, Doc’s Gambling, Slot500Club, and others to guide me along. I’ve been a “solo video poker player” for 10 years and had Slotmassacre not come on the scene in February of 2020, I wouldn’t even be here. I’m looking forward to collaborating extensively with Andrew to elevate the appeal of video poker, the greatest game in the casino!😁🌎
Thank you John.
Thank you for your support, Linda.🌎
Aloha
Looks like Temecula near Pechanga where you live
I think Andrew calls you a role model..
You know your geography! And nice of you to say (in regards to Andrew). He’s my role model without a doubt and my hero as far as video poker goes! Sometimes I see him as my kid brother, but then again, I look up to him as if he were my older brother! He’s got video poker in his DNA!!!⚡️⚡️🌎
Well he sure does but it is nice to see the community buoy guy along with big oats have created
I would be right in middle of but live Hawai’i and always miss your guys trips
My pops lives in Menifee went the backwaters one day to casino That why know area lol
My sister-in-law lives in Menifee and she used to live in Hawai’i for 10 years. What a small world! I know a few folks from Hawai’i who love going to The California hotel & casino downtown. It has a nice vibe in there. And everyone is so friendly there too. Thank you for your viewership, Brad.🌎
Good ole' Pechanga! I have been playing there more than Pala lately! Not having much luck at Pala the last few months....!?!?
I used to play at Harrah’s SoCal for so many years when they had respectable video poker machines and then they gutted their casino and ripped out all their best video poker machines, so I don’t go there anymore. During those years, I would go to Pala but was never really able to accomplish much there. Pechanga has always been rock solid in their video poker offerings. It is a very well-run and player friendly casino.🌎
The Professor in the house!
Good stuff, John.
Looking forward to your first RUclips Royal! 💪
Thank you, John. I'm sure that will happen (once I get my tripod) so I can focus on playing with both hands & add commentary along the way. (rather than playing with one hand & holding onto the phone with the other) while looking through the phone screen to select the cards! I made mistakes doing that. Ouch! Thank you for your support.🌎
John, I have a lot of respect for both you and Andrew. I watched the videos for a greater insight into the success you and Andrew have enjoyed. One of the key takeaways is the ability to move up demon when playing with the houses money. A player can have adequate bankroll, knowledge of the game, and discipline; but if you don't "take a shot" your success will be limited. I am a conservative, analytical, and a "grind it out" type of player. From my perspective "taking a shot" is relying too much on the variable of "luck." A player is giving up a lot of control in order to "take a shot." I would feel better about moving up in demon if there was backstops in place such as a loss rebate. Again, because of the element of luck there is no road map that I can follow to duplicate this type of success. One analogy is an individual has reached financial independence with an asset allocation of 50% equity and 50% fixed income. While another individual has also reached financial independence, but with an asset allocation of 100% equity. The fist individual has the mindset he doesn't need to take on unnecessary risk with the understanding he is leaving "money on the table". The second individual has the mindset even if the stock market has a significant drawdown, he will still have financial independence. In the long run the second individual will probably achieve a greater degree of wealth It's a matter of one's point of view.
You're one perceptive guy, Mark! I can see that we'd have a lot to talk about across many areas. I'll be in Vegas December 8-10. Perhaps we could meet while I'm there and have some conversation. I'll give you a heads-up so we can meet if you'd like? Please let me know what works for you.
Studying your play. Glad to hear of your success in your “second career.” Still trying to break away from triple double, hard to give up 800 units for four aces. Nice “meeting” you ! Thanks for the video…
Bonus Poker is not a game of giant thrills or deep lows. It’s largely steady as she goes. However, it can be quite thrilling on very high denomination coins such as $25, $50, & $100 coins. I’d rather be thrilled by BP on high denomination coin, instead playing the more volatile games at lower denominations.🌎
Keep it up, Johnny!
Thank you, Larry, for watching. And especially so if you’re subscribed!🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
YOU WORKED HARD, ENJOY IT!!
Thank you, Ron. Hard work is its own reward. I’ll say one thing about Slotmassacre. He’s the most dedicated, organized, and hardest worker that I ever known. Chasing to keep up with him is only going to make me a better person. Stay tuned. The best is yet to come. Thank you for watching!😁🌎
Are you going to share some knowledge John. Not the obvious stuff of course but info about different variances and denoms you like to play according to the game being played. Also some of the not so obvious holds and throwaways from game to game as it does change and i have gotten differing opinions and i would like to know yours. Yes i heard about you from Andrew. I'm a big slot massacre fan. Thanks
Thank you for your appreciation of the details, Kerry. Video poker is definitely a game that requires thought, as well as, experience. For those that use a simulator that “warns on mistakes” the game becomes much easier and more “tamable” so to speak. I am primarily an 8/5 Bonus Poker player since it has yielded the best results for me. However, I do “retreat” to 9/6 JOB if I’m in a cold-streak while I’m playing Bonus Poker. Then again, if the going is good on either of those 2 games and I’m up on them, I’ll quickly resort to Bonus Poker Deluxe (mid-stream) and play with house money for the 400 coin hit on any Quad. That is something that Slotmassacre has repeatedly shown me and man does it work well. By the same token, I’ll then go further with 9/6 Double Double Bonus for the better Quad hits and the hits with kickers, of course. I’m familiar with Triple Double Bonus enough to leave it alone since it is so volatile (5X the volatility of Bonus Poker), but I have seen some amazing hits on it by Slotmassacre, our buddy Curtis, and by others. Lately, I’ve taken an interest in Super Aces type games, but I need a little more familiarity with them before I go hard on them in the casino. I’m a “Collector” of Royal Flushes due to my penchant for Bonus Poker. If you play “sloppy near-perfect” strategy on BP, you can expect to hit a lot of them, and I do. My “go to” denomination is $2 Coin play for starters with a quick switch to $5 & $10 Coins if it’s going well. But I’ve played $25 Coin too and a little $50 coin. I aspire to be a regular $25 & $50 Coin player in the coming year, but I am conservative in my approach, so I have to “build a bankroll” from house money before I can “settle-in” at those levels. However, if the machine is rolling along, I am fearless at any coin denomination. I’ll jump right to $100 Coin without blinking an eye (and stay there) if the situation warrants it. And yes, I’m a huge fan of Slotmassacre too! Without him, there’d be no John’s World Of Video Poker. I’m grateful for your interest in my channel. Thank you!🌎
@@johnsworldofvideopoker thanks John. Looking forward to more videos.
What a beautiful kitty 😺!
He’s the biggest sweetheart!😻😁🌎
Are you shy or concentrating! 😁
I’m particularly camera-shy that’s for sure! I wish I had the candor of Slotmassacre. He’s an open book. But he and I hang together all the time, so like they say; “You become like the people you associate with the most”. And if I were to become more like, Andrew, that would be a vast improvement!🌎
Good session love the profit taking!! Glad you uploaded another video looking forward to more. Thanks John!!
The video is longer than I wanted and I wanted to do it in 2 segments, but I was afraid to cut it in half for fear of losing half of it forever somehow. So, I just threw it up there “as is”. I’ll do another one tomorrow but shorter in length. I missed filming the 4 Aces because I set my phone down (still waiting on the tripod that I ordered). I barely caught the tail end of it.😁🌎
Hello John, best of luck on the new endeavor!
Thank you, Hal.
@@johnsworldofvideopoker John, I can only find 6/5 bonus poker at casinos available to me. Is it worth playing?
6/5 BP is a horrible pay table IF you have access to 7/5 or 8/5 BP. What’s the best pay table on Jacks or Better? On DDB? If you’re playing 6/5 BP, it’ll just require more bankroll that’s all. But……make sure it pays 10 on 2 pairs, 125 on Quads, 200 on 2,3,4’s, and 400 on 4 Aces. Which State & Casinos are you in?🌎
@@johnsworldofvideopoker I’m in Pa. the local Mohegan Sun is the worst. 6/5 job, 6/5 ddb. I get to AC as often as possible but Ceasars properties aren’t much better. 7/5 job, 6/5 bonus. These are at 25 cent level. I’m just starting but may just move to dollar level as pay tables are better. Thanks for replying.
Mohegan Sun is running the Virgin Hotel & Casino (formerly the Hard Rock) here in Vegas and their pay tables are bad. A friend of mine went in there & was playing a “Dealt Royal” machine (which pays 10,000 coins if the Royal is Dealt) on a $10 Coin. And he hit it for $100,000! So It serves them right. We never play there and reward them for bad pay tables. I have played in Atlantic City but that was 3 years ago. I think they were 7/5 pay tables (which aren’t the best) but they are playable. There may be 8/5 games at MGM in Maryland, but I’m not sure. Thank you for watching.🌎
Hey John, congrats on the channel, well done! Good ol' Pechanga, have not been there in awhile.
Thank you, Chuck. Yes, Pechanga is a sweetheart if a casino. Full pay video poker at every coin denomination, great steakhouse, pool, spa, and hotel. It’s a phenomenal casino and I’m so lucky to have it nearby. If you’re ever there, give me a heads-up!🌎
Really nice backyard John. I just got back from Pechanga. I broke even after 3 days. Looking forward to all your videos!!
Thank you, Terry. I consider breaking-even a win. You battle with the casinos for a session or a weekend in a dual for fire superiority! You give them access to your money and they give you access to theirs. If after battling them for 3 days and it’s a draw, that’s a win since all along they’re playing with an edge over us. Great Job duking it out with them. You’ll come back and hit them harder next time!😁🌎
Way to much Adds!!!!
Sorry about that. Building a channel which offers video poker is expensive, no matter how one looks at it. Without the Ads, there’s no channel at all. Without Ads on radio and television, there are no radios & televisions. Creating content is expensive in any media and costs a lot of money. At best, it is a “break-even” proposition only.
Liked your video just not the choice of game. Let's see more videos! I have been watching all the guys since their beginning. They are great guys!! GOOD LUCK !!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you for the best wishes, Janis. I get it about the game, Bonus Poker. I use it to build bankroll for larger coin denomination play on future videos. I’ll diversify my play as I go along.🌎
Where you playing at John?
I was playing at Pechanga, one of my favorite casinos.
It's good to lower the intensity and enjoy some calm play. And it is always good when you walk away with any size win!
Video Poker Nirvana😁 Exactly, Leonard! What you just said is the very “essence” of the game and I think that is the reason why so many people enjoy playing it when they’re out there in the casinos. Going to a nice casino restaurant, perhaps a cocktail or two, and then a sweet little session on video poker…..What could be better? Thank your for your viewership and insight, Leonard.🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
Thanks for this John! Your tips and insight to the game are invaluable.
When it comes to having a "bad session", do you have a point at where you stop? Using your 1,000 credit rule, would you cut your losses when you're down to around 500credits? Or do you commit to the entire bankroll allotted?
I'll be in Vegas early december...hoping to turn my tip money from gigs into a royal 🎷
Great to hear from you, Adam! I’ll be in Vegas from Dec 8-10, so we should meet up if you happen to be in town. I gave a few pointers to a Vegas local (who’s already a sharp player) and he hit a Royal with me sitting right next to him and it wouldn’t have happened without the 1,000 Coin minimum rule that I shared with him. He then hit another Royal the week following, agin with the 1,000 Coin minimum. When to cut your losses is very subjective and depends on a lot of variables. But if we meet up I can get you up to speed quickly on that. Hope to see you soon.🌎
@@johnsworldofvideopoker ...i'm there from Dec 5-8 😞 leaving morning of the 8th...maybe my plans might change though
Dash it all. We keep missing each other! One of these days……..😉🌎
So right you are!🤣🌎
I don’t consider myself (or anyone in any field) an “expert” as I feel no one can possibly know everything about anything. (Look how many times all the so called “experts” in our our society have been wrong on so many things). Let’s just call it “good enough” to share the journey with others to show what’s “possible”. As for your “challenge”, that wouldn’t “prove” a thing. I could have 10 “off the wall incredible” wins in a row or I could tank 10X in a row or any mixture of the two; a sample size of 10 sessions proves absolutely nothing either way. And neither winning all 10 (or tanking all 10) would stop me from playing. That’s the volatility of the game which will always be there. ANYTHING can happen in the “short term” for anybody, good or bad. In the long term (because of the house edge) we all ultimately will lose. But long term could be 1,000 years stretched to infinity. By the same token, short term wins could last 10 years or more as mine has. I hope that “short term win cycle” lasts an additional 20 years (not just 10 sessions) and you’re welcome to view it all here, the good, the bad, and the ugly. Good luck to you in both the short term and the long term.
Hey John, thanks for the video. I just landed SNA yesterday and saying with my son in Monarch Beach. Trying to sneak away from Turkey time this week and get down to Pala for my NSUD fix. Look forward to bumping into you there early next week!! I enjoyed the video!
Thank you for the heads-up, Skip. Enjoy your Thanksgiving with family. See you next Monday or Tuesday, I believe you said. Please keep me posted. Looking forward to it!😁🌎
Valuable lesson, bonus poker, good pay table, played well, you can last a long time, waiting for a nice hit or two, like your aces at dollar level.....are you pretty exlusive to single line bonus poker? Enjoyed!
Thank you,Tim, for watching and for what appears to be a mutual liking and understanding of the power of simple 8/5 Bonus Poker. It is my “go to game” and I love it. Bonus Poker has been extremely kind to me over the years. I’m sure too that others have had similar experiences for their game of choice such as DDB & TDB, but Bonus Poker is such a workhorse for the player. It is a most noble and cherished game to me. I will always love it. That being said, I recognize the appeal and potential of other games and will feature them in my play as well. Multi-line games have ardent adherents and I would love for one of those players to show me the ropes on those games because I’m probably missing out! In 90 days, I hope to feature a lot of exciting video poker content from all the games. I am open to them all, but there’s no doubt that Bonus Poker will feed you for life. Love it!♥️🌎
Grinding
“Grinding” the most accurate description of video poker in one word!🌎
You threw away the entire hand when you had 789T. Is this a joke? You’re playing awful.
Yes, those were my early videos and I was so nervous about actually making a RUclips video that I really wasn’t focused on the strategy. I’m the 1st person to admit my errors on my play so that others don’t go down the same road. In fact, I highlight my errors for all to see. Of course, there’s NEVER been a player who hasn’t, doesn’t or won’t make errors. There’s 2,598,690 possible hands in video poker and only a computer gets it right every time. But I agree with you, sloppy play is no way to conduct a video poker session. The beauty of video poker is that perfect play doesn’t guarantee a winning session, just as imperfect play doesn’t prevent a player from having a winning session. A player can hold the correct cards and hit a Royal, a player can hold the incorrect cards and hit a Royal, and a player can hold no cards and hit a Royal. Nonetheless, I have won close to $500,000 in Royal Flushes over the last 10 years of playing. If you watch my video with the $100,000 Royal Flush, you’ll find that on that night I hit 3 Royals in 3 hours for a total of $110,000 off of a single $100 Bill that I had won off of $15 in free play from a few weeks week before.😁🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎
Hey John nice session. Looks like you have a similar style to Andrew. Might have to try that myself. Didn't know they have progressives at Pechanga. I've had lots of luck on TDB and DDB although have never hit a Royal at Pechanga or Pala unless you count the non IGT machines of long ago. It seems my hand is Awk and 2-4/k. Hit a 2wk on TDB on the 15th🤠 Hit a bunch of Royals at Pauma years ago when their machines were full pay. Been playing in that region for twenty plus years. Anyhow best of luck on your new venture
Andrew & I are very similar in our approach to the games, although he is much more well-versed in all the games than I am. He’s very level-headed, shrewd, and deliberate. He is a daredevil with his penchant for high volatility games (TDB, TTB, STBP) but he knows how to win with it, do more power to him and to all who love those games. It sure makes for thrilling play!🌎
