Masque Multiplay VP

#1

The strategy in that software is somewhat less accurate than the basic
strategy in Video Poker Strategy Master. It is far better than the older
Masque product Video Poker Strategy Pro. Also if you have the first edition
of this you need to download a patch to fix Spin Poker. All chart based
software is less than the perfect strategy available in Frugal VP,
Winpoker, VPTutor, Stanford Wong VP etc. That last piece was available
almost ten years before your Masque product and ran on any IBM compatible
from an 086 on up. For that reason, I think that the Masque products are
lazy programming.

Subject: [vpFREE] Masque Multiplay VP

This is my first post since joining the group. I wish I had something to

offer rather than

asking for help first time out. My wife and I travel to Las Vegas 3-4

times a year. We play

JoB and DB almost exclusively. I have used Masque's Multiplay Video

Poker for years to

practice my play. I'm sure there are those of you out there familiar

with this software. The

play strategies provided appear to be accurate. Does anyone here know if

the software

···

provides the proper playing strategy? Thank you in advance.

Thanks for the responses. Are any of the software programs you mention available for
Macintosh OSX?

"Recommended" - as being included in the list of Commercial Products
detailed in the FAQ's? Or does the recommendation run strong than
this (e.g. preferred over other software)

How 'bout someone write/post a strong review of the "Optimum Video
Poker" software, with a satisfying level of detail. (or at least post
a link to such a review). I'm looking for something that will give me
a strong sense of the product look and feel as well as specific
capabilities and strengths ... before running out and buying it.

"Recommended" as being an enthusiastic endorsement of the
software, based on the reputation of the author, advertised
features, positive private feedback, and several complimentary
reviews that I have read.

Or does the recommendation run strong than this (e.g. preferred over
other software)

No.

None of the FAQ recommendations are ranked as preferable to
any other, and they are listed in alphabetical order by category.

Reviews are always welcomed/encouraged on video poker related
products.
