Default video poker?

Can anyone give any suggestions on how to play video poker? Are there any sites with guides on how to play the different games (jacks or better, jokers, wild deuces etc?)
Thank you

I was told if you play optimal strategy on deuces wild this is the only slots game that gives you a positive return. does anybody else hold this to be true?

There are a couple other games out there that have > 100% return but the proper strategies are much more complicated than Dueces Wild.

Sadly its pretty hard to find any of them at levels above $1.

Microgaming 4 play and 10 play dueces wild is almost 100% return.

Only a few games with progressive jackpots return over 100% and only when the jackpot is over a certian amount.

This does not include comps which could push the edge in the players favor.

Not all deuces wild games have the same pay table. All of the online games I've seen have crippled the pay table to make EV negative. (Otherwise people would set up bots to play them all day long) Evidently there are still some real life 100%+ return machines in Vegas.
