Re: August Contest featuring... Spin Poker!

It was indeed the first dealt royal flush of the contest. Thanks for catching it, we will update the systems. The reason the hold card is off in this case is because the system automatically holds all cards. We are currently only updating the holds in Spin Poker when the user selects them, so an autohold (which only happens with a dealt royal) did not register all the cards as held.
 
Thanks WM. Auto-hold occurs on some real vp machines when a non-improveable jackpot hand is dealt.

Here are a couple of other auto-holds on real machines, for the site software people who spend too much time on their PCs and not in casinos ():
 
Aces w/kicker dealt in Triple Double Bonus.
Aces dealt in Royal Aces.
 
Mule, (or anyone) have you ever seen those two NOT auto-held?

I had auto-hold appear on a 10-play dealt royal last year on triple double bonus.
 
The machine was so generous if offered me the option to double up!

There are some big scores up there, but it doesn't look like any of the leaders have anything great to go with their dealt royals.
 
Good score of 44570 for Tamster, but second best deal was only 750 points.
 
I think this is still up for grabs!

It's possible Eduardo. I know on previous contents we have seen someone sneak in at the last minute and win in.
 
Just curious... what are your or anyone elses average winning lines per game? Just want to see what the average is for that part of the contest...
