Thanks Ted!

And yes Atomic, I know about most of the strategy changes. In fact in this particular hand, I was dealt 2 pair (QQ66x). Very volatile game that I'll play very sparingly.

I agree with the need to take a break from normal strategy thinking. If I were to sit in front of one of these in a B&M casino, I would most likely hit and run. As previously mentioned, the variance, for some players, would be too much for them but hitting a 100x multiplier would be so tempting to me that I doubt I could pass it up. What stinks though is that you won't get a multiplier if you are dealt 3 of a kind. Or, am I wrong there?

Correct Ted, no mults for 3oak or two pair if dealt 3oak. But you do get them for a FH, or any of the quads. And thanks CBK! I played around a bit again tonight and got these. And yes, it IS correct to hold a kicker with a high pair when you have a 100x multiplier for 2 pair.
