[QUOTE=Vman96] VPFree2 volunteers are bad for not listing games that aren't strictly 99%+.....I'm hoping to play 98.80% bonus deuces for nickels myself this weekend at Fitz Tunica.It was probably true at one time that vpFREE2 mainly showed 99% and higher video poker, but I'm seeing more and more sub-99% games there now. That's probably just a sign of the times with all the downgrades. 98% games are now the best at some casinos.

For example, and speaking of the Fitz Tunica, vpFREE2 shows video poker as low as 98.50% as the best games there. [/QUOTE]

Yeah, that one, I just reported that it got downgraded to that level from 99.57%. I didn't expect them to keep it on the list. But people should also be smart enough to know that higher return is generally better (unless the lower return machine offers more bounceback to make up the difference). I tend to report as low as 98.8% to keep the Deuces crowd happier. Vegas strip games as low as 98% and they'll put it up there since that is often some of the better games they offer, especially at quarters.

VPFree2 volunteers are bad for not listing games that aren't strictly 99%+, and many casinos don't offer deuces that are 99% or better because the next common deuces paytable is 99.73% and the next common Bonus deuces paytable is 99.45%.   But a very popular deuces paytable is 98.91% and the Bonus Deuces paytable nearest to full pay is 98.80%. I think Coushatta has both of those from Larry's reports. I'll tend to list both of these games if I find them. I'm hoping to play 98.80% bonus deuces for nickels myself this weekend at Fitz Tunica.

I understand now, there used to be more 99%+ games in the past, but the new trend is 98% is considered playable.

There is a big drop off in Deuces Table (at least to my knowledge the non-Bonus variants), like a whole percentage on each game.

Full Pay 9/5/3/3 - 100.76%
NSUD 25/16/10 DW44 - 99.73%
Airport 25/15/9 DW44 - 98.91%
??? 20/12/10 DW44 - 97.58%

I always thought sometimes people do not report it so that people do not flock over and crowd over the spots. I saw 9/6 DDB in a handful of places in one casino, but no one has ever put it up on the vpFREE site. I know many people love DDB so I got suspicious, as the casino's majority DDB machines are 9/5 which is under 98%, so it was not worth posting as a good game to play.

I learned there is a statistical page of how much my local casino is paying out. Only screenshots of winners holding a paper check though.
