The best pay schedule in AC is 7/5. Aces 4000 jackpot happens every 300K hands I think. This game is lame.

Playing at the Orleans, they are likely playing the 8/5 version, which, at 99.4% return is not all that lame. Really, it's just 8/5 bonus poker with a twist. My understanding is that you play it pretty much like normal bonus poker, except when dealt three (and, sometimes 2) aces in position.

8/5 is a decent version. Can’t wait to see some photos of the Ace$ wins. Have you hit any yet? I only saw a guy on YouTube who has won it. Basically for every 60 four aces hits, you get one Ace$. It just doesn’t happen a lot.

I haven't played the game that much, just occasionally at the M. I have never hit the ACE$. On further reflection, I think the only time you differ from normal 8/5 strategy is when you are dealt three aces in correct position.

I do know one person who has hit the ACE$. They had a picture on their phone. They were playing $1 denomination at the M.

I did get a royal flush each of the last two years playing at Orleans. Have never spelled out ACES yet. Once years ago in local casino in Milwaukee, a lady did on a machine I was playing about 20 minutes earlier

I've never seen the ACE$ jackpot, ever. I agree with above post, this game is lame or just dumb. I didn't actually know though that it's frequency was once every 300,000 hands to get that mystical non royal jackpot, I thought it was actually twice that!

I played it at Fort McDowell in AZ. I played 1$ 10 bet and it dealt me the ACES for $8000. I had a picture, but can't find it. What a rush!

I'd be happy just to see a picture, someone must still have one out there!
