If someone were attempting to describe my “system” of winning at video poker, a reasonable 20-second summary would be: Only play when you have the advantage. Play within your bankroll. If you do the above, over time your bankroll will increase. Yes, there are some nuances, but basically, that’s it. It’s not that complicated. It’s […]
Podcast – The Inside Story of Mattress Ma...

Winning a Drawing
I get inspiration for columns from all sorts of places. This was a question sent in to [email protected] for Richard and me to answer on the podcast. I will answer it there the next time we have a “Bob and Richard answer their mail” show (which is usually when we haven’t been able to schedule […]
Podcast – Buddy Frank
Bob and I interview long-time slot director Buddy Frank about how video poker has changed over the past several years.

Things are Always Changing
Most of the specific video poker games I played two years ago are gone. The reason for this is that either casinos have downgraded the machines (e.g. changed the full house from paying 45 to paying 40) or downgraded my welcome in playing that game. In one casino, the downgrade in welcome was a formal […]

What I Saw at G2E

I’ve Heard This One Before
In my classes, I often get out-of-town students. Whether I am teaching Quick Quads, Ultimate X, Deuces Wild, or whatever, there are often students who decided long ago that they are going to take at least one Bob Dancer class — and this is the week they’re in Vegas. Often, they come with a video […]
Chase Southwest Premier Business credit card bo...
The 80,000 mile bonus on this card is ending tomorrow, 10/16/19. Since this is a fairly new card and this is the highest sign up bonus ever for the SWA business card family, I don’t expect this one to return. The best business card, the Southwest Performance Business Card, comes with a different range of benefits, […]
