Video Poker Superstars on American Casino Guide

Post by alpax »

I am a big fan of the American Casino Guide and their credo/mission to "make you a smarter gambler".

I pay attention to the Vegas Values Report prior to any trips out to Vegas and their interviews with gaming industry personnel at the Global Gaming Exposition annually. Buying their booklets will also include many valuable coupons that bring great value to the players.

ACG occasionally interviews experts from the gambling industry. This year, Mr. Bourie has been able to interview two of the greatest figures in video poker, Mr. Dancer and Wizard of Odds.

Although Mr. Dancer has written an article or two for ACG in the past, this is the first time I personally seen a live interview. Mr. Shackleford has made multiple appearances and always provide solid advice to the general viewer.

When these wise folks have something to say, you'd best listen.

Good advice for even experienced players. How many points/comps have I missed by not remembering to insert my player card or not noticing that points were not being registered or multiplied?

Another good video is Six Tips to be a Smarter Video Poker Player by Henry Tamburin (from Aug 2015). It is in two parts.

I have not seen these but Mr T has offered some pretty hinky BJ advice over the years so I'd be a bit leery of his videos.
Anything Mr. Wizard says will be completely backed up by math. Mr Ts bj advice wasn't always, as I recall.
