Why, on a redraw, when nothing was held, would the screen show all five cards held?
From my experience, anytime you flop a Royal or flop a Royal on the redraw, the machine auto holds everything.

Decided to mix it up just a little bit tonight. Started on single line .25c loose deuce (100.15% ER) version. After an hour
Wasn’t really feeling it but was holding my own only down about 20 bucks in the game. So decided to go back to the .25c 5 play deuces and see if it decided to play nice this time. It wasn’t looking like it in the beginning and was dropping fast. Then flopped 3 deuces and manage to find the other one on hand D and get up to 458.75 (started tonight’s session with $400). So feeling tired just decided to split and we wind up +$58.75 for the day.
Cheers!
P.S. I have been in touch with the powers that be on this site and they agreed to work with me to reward gold memberships for the 500k group contest. So looks like that’s the way it’s going to go. I’ll give more details as we get closer to the 500k mark. Should be fun and a reason to play other than these enlightening life changing blogs ha ha

Dan, on the first hand why didn't you go for the 4th deuce instead of going for the much lesser paying 5 of a kind?
Happy New Year...

The two 7’s came up on the redraw. But hypothetically speaking, if I flopped three deuces and two 7’s in this particular game where 5 oak pays 75 and 75X5=375 credits versus vying for the 4 deuces, I would grudgingly keep the 5 of a kind.
P.S. winpoker software says saving 5 of a kind a better choice, but only a 3.5% differential.
P.S. I just reread your question and I answered a question you didn’t ask. Apologies. The answer is, I saved the 3 deuces to go for the fourth deuce, so not sure if you understood that. Anyway, there it is.

Today was X5 points day, so decided to get some hands in on .25c 5 play deuces. Brought $400 br with me. Was hanging in there for quite a while but not hitting anything great. Down to almost a hundred left I flop three deuces (for the fifth time!) and finally connect with a 4th deuce.
So decided after about two hours from start of play to split. Up a whopping +$13 for this one. I’ll take it over the alternative.
Cheers

Yeah but +$13.00 AND 5X points day is still a winner in my book.

Machine gets some revenge as we tip -$500 back into their coffers. .25c 5 play deuces. Could not count the misses on flopped trip deuces, but we certainly did not beat the stats as we should of got a few of them.
Anyway, can’t win them all and we carry on.

***500,000 thread hit Special Group Challenge***
***(Currently at 456,794 hits)***
When this thread hits 500k hits, we will have a special group challenge! Not just any group challenge as the powers that be agreed to reward gold membership or added months to those already with gold memberships to the top 5 scores! Pretty cool.
So...I will keep everyone posted on the thread count, it is currently at 456,794. When it hits 500k, we start. Contest will last one week, everyone is allowed to play, and it will likely be triple play or five play.
Cheers!

A two hour battle this session of .25c full pay deuces. Started with $300, at one point, was down to $90. But battled back and finally caught the four ducks and cashed out of this one +$120.

I was playing on the .25c full pay deuces optimum play machines (a bank of three) and an old timer was playing two machines to my left. He gets up and about 20 min later another guy sits on his machine and he sits on the last available machine in the middle.
The old timer is playing $1 10/6 DDB (its all single line) and probably plays with a speed of 300 hands an hour (slowwww). Anyway, he almost falls asleep next to me when he jerks up (which woke me up) and hit 4 aces with a kicker saving two aces for $2k smackers. A 16,234 to 1 hit and I estimate it should take him statistically 54 hours of play to hit the thing. Anyway, while he is waiting to get paid, I hit the 4 ducks and cash out up $120.
Cheers
Ps posted a pic of his $2k aces hit, it wasn’t mine. Mine’s the deuces.
