Nearly the Holy grail dealt sequential- in diamonds no less..

Congratulations. You sure beat the Borg big time on those gimmicky games.

Poor pay tables perhaps but single line TDB and SDDB are no more gimmicky than your BP- just different winning hand payouts.

WTG Hiker!!!

TDB and SDDB? Refresh me on house edge. More nice payouts on the tables…assuming survival.

Those of us on the East Coast have fewer options. Borgata TDB and SDDB should be 97.02% and 97.69% I believe. I also play some DDB which is 97.87%. There is obviously some JoB that is better, a few machines at 99.54%, but most are 98.45%. I just don't get much thrill playing JoB anymore, and my wife and I are just playing for fun. I play my BR in buckets, with 30% allotted to TDB, although oddly enough it has been my best return for the past few years with a few Royals, but more importantly an inordinate number of 4As, 2s, 3s, or 4s w/K. Good luck all,

Pretty sure there is 99.69 SDDB over there. I'll check next week. And you can play TDB at 98.77 for a single credit on the 9/7 paytable at Harrahs (5 Star double pay). It only pays 400:1 for the Royal but 800:1 for AWAK. If you play 10 credits, you'll get the full pay royal and 99.22%. And your dealt Royal would've netted you a cool 32k.

As for DDB, there are dozens of 9/6 (98.98) at the quarter level.

There are lots of options.

The Harrah’s 5 Star machines are usually free when I play BP. If you’re saying 98.8% up to 99.2%, it really would be worth learning TDB and dealing with the absurd variance. My main concern is variance.

If you're concerned with the variance, don't bother. Play a few more practice hands before getting too excited.

Yeah, that's what I figured. I'd rather go out on top. I could not get a higher TDB payout if I got a RF. Yea, I have been to the mountaintop without even braving the preposterous variance.

TDB is also available on Double Super Times Pay. Refer to my Four Winds post from 12/22/2024.

I understand that the variance is somewhat astronomical, at 193.
