Often the limit is shown on the machine in the form of a manually generated sticker, e.g. "Double up to $2000" or "Maximum double up $8000." Actually it DOES give (double) / take (nothing), except when there is a draw, then you have the option to try again or cancel and take your original win. It's not almost a 50/50 shot- it is EXACTLY a 50/50 shot. There is no house edge on this bet. However, it does not alter the payback- a 99.46 game remains a 99.46% game.
It does raise the volatility from some to a lot, depending on the game.
From a practical standpoint, the double up goes high in proportion to the size of your balls. Would you double up on a full house? A quad? What about a royal? Multiple double ups?

I don't believe that a player gets credit for coin in when activating the double up feature but I could be wrong.advantage playe wrote: ↑Thu Nov 18, 2021 4:08 pmIf u get credit for coin in it may be something to consider ??

Initial coin in only. Since you don't add anymore coin for double up, you don't get anymore credit! You get a truly fair game on the double up portion; you can't expect them to comp you for a "neutral" game- everybody with any bankroll would be playing a 99%+ game at $5 or more.
But if you hit a couple back to back double ups, you have that much more to play and gain credits...then again, if you lose a few, your session may be a bust.
Also, I have heard, but cannot confirm, that on certain machines, you can request the double up feature be activated- I don't think it's a five minute thing though.
