Here are some specific numbers that I am fairly sure to be correct. In hands that have both a Jack and a low pair, your long term expectation in 9/6 JoB if you hold the pair is about 82% return of the money you played in. The expected return when holding the Jack is about 49%.
Compressing the long term into segments of $100 coin-in (80 hands of quarter single play), the low pair should yield $82; the Jack $49. That's 66 hands of play vs. 39...a difference of 27 hands.
So for every eighty times you get this type of hand, holding the pair results in 27 more hands of future play than holding the Jack. Which can be used to pursue tier points.
