Found a few more good machines

Post by olds442jetaway »

I was looking through various paytables the other night at Mohegan Sun on some of the newer IGT machines. I have already posted about the nickel spin poker that pays 800 for the Royal on various draw poker games with just one nickel bet.
     I was looking through joker kings and when I switched from nickels to quarters I noticed the game changed from joker kings to 2 pair joker poker. The good thing is it pays 800 for five of a kind with just one quarter bet. I have never seen this anywhere else. The Royal of course is only a hundred I believe which pays the same as any other straight flush. I think that is standard though on 2 pair joker poker. These machines are located in the old poker room. So far, I haven't found any others in the rest of the casino with these good paytables for only 1 unit bet.
     I played the 2 pair machine for awhile and never hit the five of a kind, but had 2 chances with dealt quads. Maybe next time.

Pretty good find for as cheap as 25 cents. AC joker poker isn't that great overall though (97.19%). And I am not sure I could do better than 97% without constantly referring to a "cheat sheet".

Yeah, the correct holds are really weird on that game like keeping a bare 7 or something like that. I don't play it very often and when I do, I ignore all of the weird holds which I am sure reduces the return to the 95-96 range. Those holds remind me of one eyed jacks which they don't offer anymore up here.
