Genius Video Poker

The individual payback percentages of video and reel slot machines, within casinos all over, is a closely guarded secret. Many gamblers are skeptical about the transparency of video poker. Several players are therefore not able to calculate each game's payback percentage, as per the pay table. An expert on this subject is John Daley, who is the director of video poker, for International Game Technology. (IGT) manufactures most popular and widely played video poker machines, all over the world. John Daley is absolutely categorical in saying that every card you draw and every hand you are dealt, is as random as any computer program will allow. The randomness is also there because the shuffling and dealing is very similar to the manner in which you deal your own 52-card deck, at home. Daley admitted that video poker games are available in various different percentages and different operators choose, what they want. However, he reiterated that unlike video and reel slots, video poker games are an open book!
