I find the poll results to be about what I would expect considering that very, very few video poker players keep track of their actual results. Since we are encouraged to keep good records in order to be winning players, it follows that players who don’t keep records are more likely to be losing players (and can’t answer the poll at least not accurately). Therefore, the poll shows more winners than losers.
BTW We aren’t “required” to answer the polls here, just “expected” to do so. But internet forum members are notorious for ignoring forum rules anyway.

I personally find the results of these polls amusing.
We are all “required” to participate in all polls — and yet only a few dozen do. There is apparently no penalty for not doing what is required here.
And boy, are vpFREE members winners! If the results reported were anywhere near accurate, casinos would be scrambling to shut this hotbed of AP players down.
In any group this size, losing players will far outnumber winning players. But you won’t find that on these polls. Our results show we are WINNERS!
Yay for us!
