The "heaven or hell" games

Post by Player422738 »

The "hell" part...down about $5K in 5 sessions. :cry:

The "heaven" part...easy win on 2 sessions and got all my loss back + profit... :D

98.15 TDB. Weird looking game created by Ballys I guess...33433

98.6 TTB

97.X I seldom play this game and it's my first time win the jackpot on this game.

Those are really nice hits. I only play Joker Kings when I do play Joker. The one time I played Joker 2 pair, I got the Royal with the tiny payout. I haven’t played it since. Congrats!!

Welcome to my VP world - either a pocket full of hundos when leaving the casino, or a pocket full of lint. Seldom somewhere in between.

Congrats.

Hop what is the variance on that triple kicker game?
Better yet, is their a handy resource to look-up variance on any game? (Similar to teaching a man to fish) :)

Triple triple bonus is about 135. TDB is about 100, DDB is about 45, JoB is about 20.

Triple kicker game is just same as TDB but manufactured by Ballys. They have to use a different name.

25.78 for optimal strategy and 25.79 for basic strategy for NSUD:

I think you guys up there are the last hold outs for those 2 games since Greektown dumped them for 9/5 jacks and 15/9/4/4 ducks.

I think that is true JS but we are starting to lose our good machines
25-26 variance for NSU , THanks HOP. Better than i thought.
You must pull these #'s out of your superior math brain, i can not find a list any where. Thanks. :up:
