Where is TDB in the monthly game?

I'm directing this question to the decision people of the website, but also looking for support from members. A few of the offerings are difficult to find here in Vegas. Yet, TDB is EVERYWHERE, and very POPULAR.
I fully recognize the member base is everywhere, but surely your riskier offering over DDB is much too similar. Further, four aces with kicker occurs more frequently in TDB than DDB, in math stats. We never know what is going to come out of these machines on the deal or draw, but go into any casino and you'll have no problem finding TDB. JOB, another example, is becoming an extinct game, also, here. I LIKE JOB, but on the overall the trends here in Vegas, the epicenter of VP in the WORLD, are not correctly depicted in the monthly game. Your business is here in Vegas, and I feel your company should be more RESPONSIVE to what is actually taking place in the real world, here in Vegas and Reno, I will add. You could easily explain to your customer base what your doing. Again, TDB BELONGS on the monthly game.

The main reason TDB is not offered in the Monthly contest is because of the nature of the game itself and the 4000 payout for kickers. While the other contests are primarily about jackpots, the Monthly contest is more of a marathon. Increasing the frequency of 4000 payouts for people playing TDB would throw off much of the balance that is there currently, where every game has a chance to win over the month. The leaders (people lucky enough to get multiple kickers) would be further ahead of anyone else, making it feel out of reach for much of the month for more players. In each of the other games, the odds of a royal flush 4000 payout are fairly similar. While it's true that lower payouts on other wins balance out TDB as a whole, with the variance in the game that means you would have more people struggling futher down the leaderboard, with fewer near the top. Given the nature of that particular contest, we decided to leave TDB out for that reason. It is readily available in many of the other contests on the site.

Thank you for your reply.
While your reasoning may have some credibility, your reasoning does not answer to the popularity of the game. Additionally, the choice of games should take care of concerns of those up and those down. The leaderboard is always showing different names. I doubt, sincerely, that that will change because of TDB. Everyone gets 500 hands day. It'd be fun to include the very popular game for a month and have you report the result, because most likely your reasoning has been untested. Thanks again.

Whatsa Royal Flush? Have not seen one in the monthly in almost 15 months.

I'm very hopeful that TDB will be added to the monthly game. How about Super Aces, by the way. Add some variety to the monthly game. The offerings are stale. Going to moldy. Come on owner/manager, make some changes/adjustments! We'll all thank you for changes. Variety is a nice spice!!

I like the monthly game the way it is...no gimmicks. Save all the fancy stuff for the other contests! Sorry....this should be under contests, not games...too late!

I agree totally with Mare2548.   Monthly game,in my opinion is perfect and your reasoning for keeping it that way is SOUND. We have so many games to choose from that there's no lack for variety. Please keep monthly game as is. Thanks for all your efforts on our behalf. this is a great website.
