It seems to me that one has to have a level of confidence that they are playing a fair game. If a player suspects that the game they are playing is not following the specific rules set for the game and the playing field is not level, I would advise them to not play.
If on the other hand, you accept that the video poker games you play are in fact randomly dealing cards, then you must conclude that these apparent anomalies are part of the random results.
The cases you cite, such as getting AAAA while playing deuces or 2222 while playing DB is also something that I have experienced and the ironic nature of such results is not lost on me. I do not however, ascribe these incidents to anything other than random ironic results. They stand out like a sore thumb because of the credits they would have racked up on another paytable. This is what makes them memorable amongst the blur of all the unremarkable hands. The fact that they jump out at you is what leads one to imagining that they are of a frequency not explainable within a random sample.
