9's or better

Do any Vegas casinos have this variant? Is this a good pay schedule? I've never seen this.

Looks terrible to me. I think it is less than 96%.

I don't doubt DRich2 is correct, but I've never seen a game that paid 10 coins for one pair (9s or Better). 20 coins for Three of a Kind? 15 for Two Pair? 50 coins for a Straight?

All I can guess is that anything above 9s or better probably comes rarely.

I'd play it for a few minutes. Most other "super" or "bonus" VP games pay more for for, say, 4 Aces, or 600 coins for four of a kind, but the rest of their schedules are crap to make up for those.

In THIS game, all payoffs are higher than JOB, Bonus, DB, DDB, etc (except no bonus for Aces), and probably don't show up very often.

I've never seen it anywhere.

If it's a true video poker machine and not a video lottery machine, winning hands have to come out on schedule, but that pay schedule is whacked.

DRich2 has it right.

This particular machine is located somewhere near Iowa (sorry I can't tell exactly) and only one machine with this game in the entire casino. But I guess at 96%, who cares (lol).

I think people may be missing the fact that this is not draw poker, in this game you do not get to hold any cards.

Are you talking about pick a pair/Pick 'em?

Only in down town at The Fremont.
See the pay table.

The screen shot shows pick a pair in the lower left corner. There are lots of crummy pay tables around for this game.....as ddd indicated, full pays last holdout is at the Fremont which is 99.95%.

There a few LESS THAN FULL PAY Pick 'Em's past the Lanai Express by the Keno lounge.
Pay attention.

The one I played was at the end of Roxie's bar.There are a pair there.
I first played this machine at NY NY,but they are long gone. It really IS volatile.You get a LOT of crap hands,waiting for some good ones.

I always make it point to play them at The Fremont.
Also,the cocktail service is great,right next to the servers station.
Yes,it may cost you $30 worth of play B-4 you get your coffee.Better than $60.
Service at the table games is usually quite good.
