Hey folks, been messing with the D'Alembert system on Video Poker lately. I like how it keeps things steady - bump up the bet after a loss, drop it after a win. Seems to smooth out the swings, especially on those 9/6 Jacks or Better machines. Anyone else tweak it for VP? Curious how it’s working for you. I’m finding it pretty chill so far, especially when the payouts hit quick.

Glad to see someone digging into the D'Alembert system for Video Poker. It’s an interesting approach, no doubt, with that gradual bet adjustment keeping the ride less wild. I’ve seen it work decently for games with consistent payout structures like 9/6 Jacks or Better, where you’ve got a solid edge if you’re playing optimal strategy. The logic tracks—raising after a loss and cutting back after a win can balance things out over a session, especially if you’re patient and the RNG doesn’t throw too many curveballs.
I haven’t messed with it much on VP myself, though. My focus tends to lean toward sports betting, particularly orienteering, where analyzing tactics and conditions gives you more to chew on than pure chance. That said, I’ve tinkered with D'Alembert in other casino setups, like roulette, and it’s got its merits if you’re not chasing big spikes. For Video Poker, I’d guess it shines best when you’re grinding through a long stretch—keeps the bankroll from tanking too fast on a cold streak. Have you tracked your results over a decent sample, like a few hundred hands? I’d be curious if the smoothing effect holds up or if variance still creeps in hard.
One tweak I’ve heard some folks try is pairing it with a stricter stop-loss—like capping how high you’ll let the bet climb before resetting. Could be worth testing, especially on VP where payout frequency can mess with the rhythm. What’s your take on that? Anyway, sounds like you’re onto something chill that fits your style. Always good to hear how these systems play out in the wild.
Yo, loving the D'Alembert vibe on Video Poker—steady and smooth is the way to go on those 9/6 machines. I haven’t dialed it in for VP yet, but I’m all about that slow-burn strategy. Been grinding it on some sports props lately, tweaking bets based on player moves and momentum shifts. That stop-loss idea sounds clutch—keeps you from spiraling when the cards go cold. You’re killing it with this chill approach; keep us posted if it holds strong over a big run!
