Video Poker 247
- Station Offering Video Poker
Tired of playing video poker only to lose your money quickly and then
left with nothing else to do? Station Casinos has heard your pain and
wants to do something about it. Station is introducing a whole new way
of playing video poker that some industry execs are already saying
that it will change the face of video poker.
They are aware that when the average gambler sits down at the video
poker table they will play until their money is gone. It does not
matter how long it takes them to lose their money; when it is gone, so
are they. So Station Casinos thought of a way to help the video poker
players play a little longer, and enjoy the game more.
They came up with Guaranteed Play – which is revolutionary in the
video poker world. Players buy hands for a certain amount of money -
$20 will get you 75 hands, or $40 will get you 200 hands. It still
pays out on the maximum bet per pay table, unless you choose the $1
option. This would allow the video poker players to play longer, and
allow them to pay at once instead of paying for one transaction at a
time.
If you were to play regular video poker, on $20 you would get about 16
maximum bet hands, which would obviously mean for a shorter night for
the player. Experts say that they could start to see video poker
become more of a form of entertainment instead of a coin operated
gambling machine. The casino has the game in 2,000 video poker
machines across nine casinos.
