$1 is just the credit denomination. Most video poker games have you betting 5 credits per hand for max value on the "jackpot" type hands. Some special feature machines have you betting 6 credits per hand ("Quick Quads", "Super Times Pay") or even 10 credits per hand ("Ultimate X"). Many machines are also multi-hand (3play/5play all the way up to 100play) or multi-line ("Spin Poker"), so your max bet is x credits per line * n lines.
The Rio DDB machine mentioned is a $1 3/5/10 Play machine, meaning you can bet $15, $25, or $50 per spin at the best possible EV.
