Pick a Pair

Post by Webman »

Pick a Pair




Pick a Pair is a simple game that has proven very popular over time. Players
get to see the first two cards of a hand and then pick one pile of three cards
to complete the hand from two piles where all the player can see is the top, or
third, card. A fast playing game that is easy on the mind. Play Pick a Pair now!

Last time I was at the Seminole casino in Tampa, i saw these "new" games called pick a pair poker.  I was wondering if anyone knew what the expected return was for perfect play.  I don't see anything here, though the games are available to play on this site.  I like them, but lost everything ($20, lol) the first time, but doubled up the second set to break even.  Any ideas???

Your welcome.  That info might be here somewhere, but I didn't look here.  For the first one, I looked at WinPoker.  That one is a longtime standard default game.For the other two, I looked on the Web site of vpgenius.com.

I found this game a couple yrs ago, and play it pretty regular. Its alotof fun and doesn't  take a lot of thinking. The frustrating hand is whenyou get quads on the deal, and can only save 3 of them. or if your really lucky you might get a full boat. Have fun.

 You need to check the pay table on the machines you want to play.
 
There are lots of them that do not have those returns.
