If you're in New York, there currently isn't a legal real-money online casino market, so I wouldn't recommend an offshore or sweepstakes casino as a workaround. New York prohibits online casino gambling, and the state has recently taken enforcement action against sweepstakes operators.
If you're asking more generally about legal U.S. online casinos, the key is less the casino's name and more the specific video-poker pay table it offers. For example:
- 9/6 Jacks or Better — about 99.54% RTP with optimal strategy.
- Full-pay Deuces Wild — some versions reach roughly 99.7%+ RTP, depending on the exact pay table.
- Bonus Poker Deluxe — a full-pay version can reach roughly 99.6% RTP.
Among regulated U.S. markets, are currently cited as operators offering video poker in states where online casino gaming is licensed, including Michigan, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia. Availability and the exact games/pay tables vary by state.
