Video Poker at Intercasino
In today’s blog we’ll be discussing the video poker payouts at online casinos such as Intercasino and 32Red. The majority of our featured casinos regularly offer payout percentages reports and, using these, it’s possible to find out the best online casino payouts for video poker. Rather than having to search through them yourself, we’ll compile the data below.
In November 2009, Intercasino offered a payout of 101.13 percent on their video poker games, meaning they gave players an edge of over 1 percent. Simply put, this means that players had a long term expectancy of gaining cash by wagering on Intercasino’s game. Usually, the payout rate is set in the favour of the casino, so over the long-run the house would have an advantage over players. In November though, the roles were reversed and Intercasino were technically running at a loss, because of their notably high video poker payouts.
While it’s hard to beat Intercasino’s video poker payouts, in December William Hill Casino offered a payout rate of 96.90 percent. This means that they maintained a house edge of 3.1 percent over players and while this isn’t bad, it doesn’t quite compare with Intercasino’s incredibly low house edge and consequent high payouts.
Finally, Ladbrokes Casino, which is powered by Microgaming, has revealed that the payout percentages on its video poker games were set at 98.38 percent, as of October 2009. The report may be a little old, but the news that Ladbrokes features a house edge of just 1.62 percent will no doubt interest players looking to reduce an already tiny casino edge.
