What if everything you were taught about Video Poker was wrong?

It is a scary thought. For the past twenty years all the reigning Video Poker experts have been selling books, strategy cards and personal lessons preaching a long term strategy based on playing mathematically correct video poker. It has become the gospel of video poker and anyone who proposes anything different is shouted down.

The experts say that if you play mathematically correct video poker eventually you will win, perhaps not today or tomorrow but in the long run. It is called a long term strategy. But is that really true? Let's say you play Jacks or Better perfectly for 100,000 hands. The estimated return of the machine is 99.54% so if the machine plays exactly as it is supposed to, you will lose.

The only way you will win is if you get lucky. This book suggests that the best strategy for Video Poker is not 100% rigid mathematical play but rather a short term strategy that allows a player to take an occasional shot at getting a big jackpot that they would not get if they played a 100% mathematically correct strategy.

This book is not some Rob Singer fantasy strategy. Taylor Norton is a professional gambler with decades of experience. In this book you will learn not only this controversial short game strategy but also the long term strategy that the experts and advantage players use. The book also includes 21 free strategy cards formatted for ebook readers and a list of needed resources.
