Playtech All American Video Poker

Overview

All American video poker machine by Playtech is another version of the more popular Jacks or Better game. The only real difference in gameplay between Jacks or Better and All American Poker is that the game offers a slightly different paytable, paying more for flushes, straight and straight flushes and lower for two pair and full house type hands.

Unlike Jacks or Better, players will only break even on the hand when holding two pair but will win eight betting units on both a straight and a flush, which is a decent increase. Overall, this changes the strategy players should apply slightly, making keeping two pair type hands less beneficial when there are other hands to draw to.

Play Video Poker American Style

While All American Poker is not among the most popular variations of video poker, the game has held its own in a sea of other video poker games over the years. The adjusted paytable adds a bit of variance to the game as well as a lower payout rate of only 98.45%. This means that compared to Jacks or Better, All American Poker is really not a game that benefits the players.

Still, despite the lower payout rate and lesser payouts for two pair hands, All American Video Poker remains a common video poker variation in online casinos and one that many major casinos have integrated into their offer. If you want to give it a shot, you can find it at a variety of Playtech powered online casinos.
