Members Rule - Double Down Stud Question
Posted: Mon Nov 16, 2020 8:18 am
I'm almost afraid to post this because there's probably a simple answer that I'm just missing. But here goes.
When playing Double Down Stud Poker on this site, doesn't it make sense to Double Down EVERY hand? If you're playing in a casino and have to put up money from your credits for every bet, you need to be careful about doubling for fear of losing twice as much on a lousy hand. Here, we're playing a specific number of hands, not putting up the initial bankroll.
In other words, to make this game work on this site, credits would have to be deducted when a bet is doubled. But they're not as far as I can see. There is no penalty for doubling down. I doubled down 25 consecutive hands, and there was never additional credits deducted to account for the double down loss.
Hope I'm making sense. What am I missing?
