Not sure about this super game think I made to right play, had 5 eights held the 3 deuces and it pays off, anyone on the % pay back on this game?

Super Triple Play was discussed in another thread, but I don't remember anything.

Your pay table is 116.81%, but I think you have to multiply by 5/6ths because of the 18-coin bet. Result is 97.34%.

The version on this site is 118.82%, converting to 99.02%. It's a 4000/2000/250/160/100/20/20/15/10/5 schedule.

Hand analyzer indicates you guessed wrong on the hold, mathematically. You were probably influenced by the doubled payout for deuces, but the 5-of-a-kind payout is also doubled, so the ratio remains equivalent to conventional NSUD. And therefore the strategy for this decision is unlikely to vary drastically from NSUD.

guess it was good to not know right play as I was down $500 when I got the hit, just trying to get even as they say, thanks dinghy

Yes nice/lucky hit but had I known the right play I would have held the five of a kind. I never seen this super game before, another player I know told me about it so a I sat down and looked over the games. only played about 50 hands total on 3 games, so very lucky.

nice, I would have done the same
