not sure im doing this right.
if i have low pairs, i'll keep them and toss any other cards to try to get the set or another pair with it. seems to be working more often than not.
:waiting:
Roulette. That's my Video Poker strategy.

This is what I do unless I have 3 to a RF, 4 to a flush or 4 to a straight, then I'll toss one of the cards from the pair.
Oh yeah, and BTW, the game room has been very good to me this morning. Caught 4 of a kind in LIR and made probably another 40-50k in VP. :D

I just wait til tuesday and hope the CCF doesn't sit by me. If I get lucky I get to take some men's BBs without begging or whoring myself out :rofl::lol::rofl:

was having a hard time in LIR so decided to try poker...havent done it very often.
also finding i wont keep 10's with face cards unless it is suited, and if i have a pair of faces i'll toss out other faces. not sure if thats best

Yup, that's exactly how I play 'em as well.

As the worst LIR and VP player I have no meaningful advice but over the past three days I did very well.This only proves that everyone can get lucky once in a while.I'm predicting I'll be broke again in a week.
One thing I tried that seemed to slow the rate of my losses in LIR was when making the max bet of 500 I use a combination of chip value to get there.I hope someone else tries this and reports any positive results......:)

i'm up about 48k today. :hurray::hurray:
