Good Times Pay Poker
Recently found Good Times Pay Poker and want some feedback on this game.
On NSU2's, does anyone know what the percentage payback would be when playing the extra coins? If so, how much per coin percentage? And the overall Percentage Payback.
If it is different with each coin, how many coins is best to play?
Thanks

I haven't tried this game and I'm not sure what you mean by NSU2. However, I believe the rules applying to games with an extra coin is that they must pay equal to or greater than the 5-coin versions.

There are 30 cells for the multipliers in this game. I do not know if the multipliers appear in exact proportion to the cells, but if they do, it would appear that the same percentage payback on each extra coin is exactly the same percentage payback as is on the base game.See below:With 6 coins, average multiplier is 1.20,with 7 coins, average multiplier is 1.40,with 8 coins, average multiplier is 1.60,with 9 coins, average multiplier is 1.80,with 10 coins, average multiplier is 2.00.Since each coin is 20% more than the base game max of 5 and the multipliers go up 20% with each coin, the increased payoffs are directly proportional to the increased wagers.As to which number of coins is best to play, it depends on how much volatility you like. Each extra coin increases the volatility more than the prior coins do, but the EV would appear to be identical regardless of how many coins are bet.I've never performed a test to see if I can give any credence to the stated assumption about the multipliers. It would seem that such a test would be more beneficial than, say 5th card flipovers, but that's just my opinion.Don't know if Webman can confirm or deny with the programmers that the multipliers appear in proportion to their cell frequencies or if that's a trade secret!
