Once I doubled on 20. It was a $500 wager.
 
It didn't work out in my favour.
 
Also, of course I didn't mean to do it. But internet lag [my internet seemed fine so I can only assume the server at their end was having trouble] resulted in a delayed click or w/e.
 
I wasn't given a refund - I guess because I could have hit an Ace. So it's a real brilliant angle-shooting opportunity for me. I lost $100,000 that night. Guess I was cheekily going for a cheating $500. On 20 rather than 19 or 18 or 17 which would make more 'sense'.
 
Of course that begs the question of why doesn't every casino code "are you sure you want to double / hit on 20?" as a precautionary measure against misclicks....
 
The cynic in me thinks it's because sometimes people accidentally double or hit on 20.

I think Wizard's guides are solid? wizardofodds.com/videopoker
 
I was using them for a bit but then bought a program. I think the mistakes people make trying to play 'optimal' aren't worth the minuscule difference from Simple rules.
