Now, when I go to a casino I know what I want, how to get it and play. I can hang out anywhere and brush up on my video poker skills with the WinPoker app on my iPhone and iPad.<\/p>\n<p>\tWinPoker has helped turn me into a video poker player with 95%-97% accuracy. That\u2019s a far cry from how I used to play. Not only has the app paid for itself with cash returns but I\u2019ve gotten many more comps than ever before.<\/p>\n<p>\tWhen I get to the casino I can now pull up vpFREE2.com on my phone to find the best machines wherever I am. The vpFREE2 database of video poker machines with the best returns is updated by a great community of video poker players. Besides sharing great information like this the vpFREE2 forums are helpful and encouraging.<br \/>\n\tI\u2019m not sure why but when I play video poker I think about comps more than I do for any other game. It seems like many of the people who track comps play video poker.<br \/>\n\tThis year I found the Vegas Message Board. The message boards have a lot of good information about Las Vegas but what really intrigues me is the material about comps and players clubs. I write about casinos, Las Vegas and Atlantic City so I know pretty much everything happening. I can\u2019t say the same thing for players clubs and comps.<br \/>\n\tMost people don\u2019t play at the same rate when visiting casinos so it\u2019s great people are willing to share their experiences about comps and rewards they\u2019ve received. It\u2019s also great that the Vegas Message Board community is so willing to share their knowledge with new visitors. I\u2019m thankful for this kind of gaming community.<\/p>\n<p>\tVegas Message Board isn\u2019t the only forum or message board where people are willing to share their knowledge but they\u2019re especially helpful for me when it comes to players clubs.<\/p>\n<p>\tWhen it comes to gambling I\u2019m thankful for smart people. There are some very smart people who specialize in certain aspects of gaming that I can\u2019t. When I want to know correct odds or strategy for a casino game I\u2019ll head to WizardOfOdds.com. Michael Shackleford is able to do the math for craps, blackjack and even 3 Card Poker that provide information I can barely comprehend.<\/p>\n<p>\tThere has always been a great community of gamblers but technology has brought them all closer. Between websites, message boards and mobile devices it\u2019s easier than ever to learn how to be a smart gambler.<\/p>\n<p>\tCheers to some big holiday wins in the casino!<\/p>\n<p>\tMarc Meltzer covers Las Vegas, gambling and men\u2019s lifestyle for various outlets.
