Tower Poker

[pokerfolio]

I had some free play at the Wynn . I noticed six or eight WMS machinescalled Tower Poker in 5c and 25c. The game choice was tens or better or deuces wild. It is a strange game. You play five lines. If you are dealt a royal the next line up would be J Q K A 2 suited then Q K A 2 3 suited and so on. So a pair of tens would be better than aces as the aces would turn into deuces, threes fours and fives. The tens: jacks, queens, kings and aces.It was interesting. I hit a straight flush twice otherwise I would have beena loser. The paytable is : 25 four of a kind                                       7 full house                                        5 flush                                       4 st8                                       2 two pair                                       1 pair of tens or betterHas anyone else seen or played this game?

Weird.
 
So if you get junk is it like 5-play where you can hold cards all the way up?

Yes the cards hold all the way up. Also in deuces wild the three, fours, fives and sixes become wild in the hands above it.I think it will appeal to vp players who are bored but I can't see how it canbe positive for the player.

I have just returned from Laughlin where the Riverside casino had it as a penny game. Still hard to beat but probably one of the better plays in Laughlin.

Sams Town had this game available last year. Interesting but could be volatile!
