What are customized books? - The Progressive Winner includes a strategy table that shows what cards to hold for every possible hand.  All good video poker systems including The Progressive Winner have been optimized for a specific payback schedule.  For example The Progressive Winner for Jacks or Better has been optimized for payback schedules that pay 9 for a full house and 6 for a flush.  If you are playing a Jacks or Better machine that pays 8 for a full house and 5 for a flush there would be very minor differences in your strategy.  A customized book is optimized for a specific payback schedule.
 
Why use customized books? - The affect on profits caused by differences between similar pay schedules is normally very minor and typically results in a difference of less than 1/10th of 1 percent in overall winnings.  However, players that play a lot or players that play on machines with major differences in the pay schedule may prefer to purchase a Progressive Winner book that has been optimized for a particular machine's pay schedule.

 

How do I order a customized book? - Customized Progressive Winner books may be purchased for $49.95 each.  To order a customized book select the customized version of the book when placing your order; then in the special instructions form of the order specify the pay schedule that you want the book optimized for.  e.g. In the Special Instruction block you could enter:

Jacks or Better: RF-250, SF-50, 4 of a Kind-25, Full House-8, Flush-5, Straight-4, 3 of a Kind-3, 2 Pair-2, Jacks of Better-1.

All of the tables and the strategy guide in that customized copy of The Progressive Winner book would be optimized for this specific pay schedule.
