LV Airport/Illinois Deuces (DW44)

[rolanddude]

I was scanning another site today (im not sure if I'm allowed to mention it here) which lists all casinos in all states and their VP machine inventory.  I of course checked out what it said about Hard Rock Tampa.  It listed the available 9-6 JoB machines (in high limit area of course), but it also listed particular DW44 machines in the .50, $1 denom and had their payback percentage at...  98.91%  (1, 2, 3, 4, 4, 9, 15, 25, 200, 800). The same game on my VPFW computer game shows a payback percentage of... 97.686%...    Our preferred game has been the BP available there because @ 98.01%, we thought it was the best available game for us... What is the correct payback % for the DW44 listed above???? I appreciate anyone's help. Joe n Gail

According to Bob Dancer's Video Poker for Winners, it's
 
Game Return 98.913 %    
Standard Dev 5.0618    
Variance 25.6219

Here is a screenshot of my Dancer's VPFW...  It shows 97.686%  I'm confused billyjoe...???  What am I missing here?  Anyone??Oops.. The pic didn't show...  how do I get it to show??  I've forgotten... It's been so long

I don't know what you're looking at in your copy of VPFW. What I do know is that, for the pay scale you described in your original post, Billyjoe's response is correct.

I am "mouseing" over... Games; Deuces Wild; and down to this payscale.  It shows the percentage beside the payscale... How do I post a pic in here?

The pic shows in my quick reply "message" window... but when I post... nothing but the red X above....???

MYSTERY SOLVED... After going back into VPFW and opening up the Game King single line games (which I haven't played since updating to Windows 7) ... I noticed that the bet was set to 1 coin... thus, the games that are shown on the list are NOT showing the payback % at MAX BET!!! It threw me for a loop at first...  but I finally figured it out...  maybe it will be of some kind of help for someone out there to know this....???
