Using VPW for Triple Triple Bonus
Posted: Mon Dec 05, 2016 11:03 pm
For the record, there is no typographic errors with the title. There exists a game called Triple Triple Bonus though most are familiar with the high variance Triple Double Bonus game, but this is even higher variance! The availability is extremely rare so not many have heard of it, it exists in most WMS (now Scientific Games) based video poker machine.
Triple Triple Bonus builds on top of Triple Double Bonus with two notable changes.
There is another jackpot outcome where if the player gets a 4 of a Kind 2s, 3s, 4s (a.k.a “low quadâ€) and the 5th card kicker is an Ace, a payout equivalent to the Royal Flush of 4000 credits. At the expense of this additional bonus, the Straight payout is cut from 4 for 1 (20 credits) to 3 for 1 (15 credits), but this additional premium quad outcome outweighs the negative.
The one place I know where this game exists on an IGT machine is at the Majestic Star in Gary, Indiana for quarters, half-dollars, and dollar denomination.
This report is entirely inspired from pokerpokerpoker’s recent big win (4000 quarter credits for $1000) on this game, can be found on this thread: Link
In the middle of the thread, pokerpokerpoker is indeed right, there is no published strategy because the game is uncommon. Thus it will be a good opportunity to showcase another good feature of this website’s flagship product, Video Poker for Winners in which you can use to train for this unique game.
A few steps is all it takes to get it done:
Open Video Poker for Winners and then the Game King for single line play
On the Games menu, select Triple Double Bonus at 9/6
Once the game loads, go to the Options menu and select Change Paytable…
Once the Edit Paytable appears, click Edit Categories button
Find 4 2s, 3s, 4s w/Ace, 2, 3, 4, select it on the list and push the Change button
We are going to customize the trigger of this outcome by renaming the outcome by removing the “Ace,†so it will read “4 2s,3s,4s w/2,3,4â€. On the Kicker Rank, uncheck the A box all the right in the bottom right and click OK button.
Back on the Custom Paytable option, we now select the Add Four of a Kind button to the left
Give it a Name of “4 2s, 3s, 4s w/Aceâ€, set pay at Bet 1 to 800 and set pay at Bet 5 to 4000. Click on Specify for the Winning Rank, and for the Winning Rank, leave only 2, 3, 4 selected. Click on Specify for the Kicker Rank, and leave just the Ace kicker. Click OK when done.
Click OK to close Custom Paytable
On the Payout page. Be sure to change the Straight Payout to 3 at 1 Coin and 15 at 5 Coin.
*For WMS machines, you must also change the Straight Flush to 55 at 1 Coin and 275 at 5 Coin.
11. Click OK to finish. Give the Paytable name of “Triple Triple Bonus 9/6†and save.
There you have it. I’ve played until I made an error. You can look at the strategy that is generated from the Analyze menu.
The game is rated at 99.75% return with a variance of 133! So I was able to verify this guide to be feasible.
