I hit the deal button and the five cards appeared. I
don't even remember what the end position cards were, but the three
center cards were (from left to right) the A, K, & 10 of Spades. I
checked Ms. Boyd's card, knew to hold 3 to a Royal, held them and
hit the draw. Up popped the Q & J of Spades on the left and right
ends. I did a doubletake as I watched the credit meter began to
tally up the 4,000 units.

First, congratulations on your Royal! Hearing that people are using my strategy cards during play, free with my book, "The Video Poker Edge", makes my day. It took me several years to come up with a format that was accurate, included all dealt hands and appropriate for casino use. You have to test every possible combination to determine which hands can co-exist in a given game--this means years of live poker plus familiarity with the game. WinPoker was an amazing resource in the testing process--I incorporated both exceptions and penalty card situations in a painless format.
I have several strategy articles coming up in my columns. If you play in Arizona, I have a regular column in Arizona Player. ("Boyd's Eye View of Video Poker", Part II of my three part strategy series came out today.) Southern Gaming, in January's issue I focused on tips for correct play. I'm working on an in depth look at strategies for Deuces Wild games for February's Midwest Gaming and Travel--I'll be comparing and contrasting several different deuces games. Also, I have something coming up for Steve Bourie's American Casino Guide Newsletter.
Again, thanks for your kind words. Linda
