EV on FPDW using NSUD strategy
Can someone tell me what my EV would be playing FPDW using the NSUD strategy?
I've learned JOB, 10/7 DB and NSUD strategy cold and at my age I'm not about to learn another damn strategy!
I was thinking of hitting those 10 coin FPDW at the Rampart on my upcoming trip but only if the EV will be higher (using NSUD strategy) than the 99.7% return of NSUD.
Any help would be appreciated.

I can't imagine the EV would be lower. You won't reach the full potential, but you almost certainly won't reduce your winnings from normal NSUD.

it would be about .10 lower . the two big differences are in nsud you keep 2 pairs as full house pays 20 credits instead of 15 infpdw and keeping 4 suited cards vs pairs in fpdw flushes pay 15 in nsud 10 in fpdw. in fpdw the quads pay 25 vs 20 in nsud thats the big difference of the two games

Yikes. Really? I knew there was a reason I always practiced the exact pay table ahead of my visits.

When you say "about .10 lower" do you mean .10 lower than 100.76 or .10 lower than 99.7?

about 100.65 assuming all other play perfect like drawing for inside straights vs throwing away all 5

Oh, that's more like it. I thought you were implying .1 below 99.7 as well. Whew!
