Hit a $4,000 RF on a sudden max play dollar JOB denomination switch. My next bucket list item is a RF at each of the AC casinos at which I play. 60% done, lacking Harrah's and Tropicana.

One must not wrestle with VP at Cubic Zirconia Nugget. A Sisyphean task.

3)  Name of Game  "A-C-E-S Bonus poker" .... this game has the word "ACES" spelled out by getting the four aces in Sequence to spell the word....it also pays the same as a Royal.  Never caught it, never seen it caught.


I would say this one is the toughest, the positioning of the aces affect your strategy if you are dealt some of them in appropriate positions. 1 in 300,000 rounds on average. It is hard to find the game, the one place I would play it is at the M Resort in Vegas. There is however a short clip online of someone achieving this. It is so rare that I will not blame you if you take it off of your bucket list.

The #4 STP DDB might be the next toughest even though it seems you are not asking for much.

1 in 375 chance to get a 10x multiplier

1 in 693 chance to be dealt a full house
1 in 4164 chance to be dealt a quad

So you are looking at 1 in about 260,000 rounds to achieve the dealt full house 10x, and at a 10 liner, huge bankroll is required.

I would say #5 by far the easiest to accomplish, as it is one in a few thousand hands. #1 and #2 should come with regular play.

The bucket list does require some bankroll to achieve.

Sequntial royal flush, in hearts, on a redraw.

Serioulsy though, a local casino had $1 BPDLX with sequential royals playing $50,000. I always said I was gonna play it, but never did.

I am not sure if you are confused with Deal Draw.

I recall billyjoe hitting a dealt royal flush for $64,000 at Biloxi.

$60,000 for the Deal Bonus (this is awarded even if the player throws away the royal flush)

$4,000 for the Royal Flush itself.

If it is not, what BJ accomplished comes awfully close.

To save a 10 just for S&G's and have the rest of the family come home for the RF!

DaBurglar your #1 and #4 are also on my list. I'd also like to hit 5 wilds on Deuces and Joker wild sometime. I've managed to hit quad deuces on that one (for only 125 credits :( ) twice, but no luck on the big 10k payout yet.

I've managed to hit quad deuces on that one (for only 125 credits :( ) twice, but no luck on the big 10k payout yet.I hear ya......I have dabbled with Joker poker but never found the desire to keep at it.....its a tough switch after years of playing games like BP or DDB or progressive games that involve JOB or DDB.The strategy for Joker Poker is not too difficult to master, the tough part is keeping your mind focused and uncluttered so that you do not accidentally slip up and start playing with JOB or DDB strategy mid-game!  lol   its easy to do especially if you are on a cold machine, and the JOKER itself does not appear for many many hands in a row to remind you by default which game you are playing lol!!!That said, I just remembered!    I have never ever hit a 5 of a kind for the 4000 payout on Joker poker!!!!!    Granted I play inconsistently and sporadically. but over the past 20 years, you'd think I would have caught one by accident!!!     NOPEFurther proof that AC's games are jacked heavily in favor of the casinos beyond anything we players expect or should encounter!
