Default Playing Multiple Games

I can humbly say that I'm pretty sure that I have a solid handle on 3 different strategies(FPDW, NSUD, and JB). These are the games I play most often, and they probably make up 95% of my video poker experience.

When I play, I usually limit myself to one game per night. If I'm going to play a different game the following night, I'll usually check over my strategy card and review the suggested methods of play. Then I'll usually get in some games on my software so that I don't waste time "remembering" how to play when it's for real.

Anyone else have strategies of advice for playing multiple types of VP in the same night or within a few days of each other?

Here's a technique I use to stay sharp.

I deal myself a 5 card hand from a standard deck. Then I think about what decision I would make based on which game I was playing (Deuces Wild, 9/6 Jacks, etc.).

After I go through all the possible games and decisions, I deal a new hand and start again. This makes it easier for me to stay sharp and quickly make the transition from one game to another.

If you try it, let me know what you think.

I actually used your technique last weekend and found it to be very helpful. Thanks for sharing, Lady Luck, and I would recommend that everyone else at least try it once. You might be pleasantly surprised.
