What game was I playing?--Encore Boston

Post by mike elbedewy »

I was down $400 at the Encore last night and switched over to a 10 play "Super" something game. Had to play 6 coins per hand for 60 coins for 10 hands-$3.00 a spin on nickels. Pays 600 coins on all 4 of a kinds. Eventually I got dealt 4 deuces and walked away a $100 loser, better than $400!.
Anyone know what game I was playing?

P.S. After experimenting with a bunch of cocktails at Encore I find their Long Island Ice tea to be one that goes down easy

Are you asking because you really don't know, or are you just testing us to see if we can figure it out?

LOL. No I don't know. It was Super something or other. 600 coins for all 4 of a kind. 6000 nickels for a dealt four of a kind deuces.
Another tidbit=State law prohibits video keno in Mass. or otherwise I likely would have been playing 5 spot.

Did you have a multiplier on this dealt hand and was it a 3x? I'm thinking it was Bonus Poker where four 2's pay 200 and with a 3x multiplier, that would explain the 600 for each.

Triple Bonus Poker pays 600 for four 2's, 3's, 4's but I've never seen this game on Super Times Pay.

No. The paytables were all normal with 2 exceptions:
1. You had to bet 6 coins per hand instead of 5.
2. all 4 of a kinds, dealt or not paid 600 instead of the normal 125.

Sounds like a version of Super Triple Play.

Though that usually pays 500 for 4K's in JOB or 800 in BPD.

Max Action Poker will pay 600 on quads with a 6 bet in Bonus Poker Deluxe. But it doesn't have "Super Something" in the name. ;)

If you go back there, get a picture of the game and post it here.

Here's a picture of Super Triple Play webman mentioned. I show Bonus Poker 10 play which pays 600 for the 2's with a max bet of 60 credits.
