Super Times Pay 25 Hand

Post by player_19954 »

What is up with this game?  It doesn't play even close to right and if that is how it plays in real life I would never touch this thing.  I've been dealt 4 to a royal at least once every time I've played and have yet to hit one.  Not only do I not get the royal, I barely get flushes.  4 to an open ended straight = 1 or none.  4 to a flush, you're lucky if you get 3.  You might cover your bet 1 in 10 hands, and just hope you get a multiplier that actually pays off.  In other words this is a pretty rough game.

How many times have you had 4 to a royal?You could get dealt 4 to a royal 5 games in a row and 6.7% of people would still hit zero of them in this game. Unfortunate to be in that 6.7% but it happens. Fortunately, you have a 41% chance of getting one the next time.

Tonight was my 11th one in 9 games.  It's just not what I'm used to stats wise.

That's a lot of 4 to the royal opportunities for just 9 games. I only show you playing 4 games though. I also don't see that many 4 to the royal chances on the deal for you so far?

I usually quit on the last hand if I'm not going to go over whatever the score to qualify is.  And yes, I did think that was a very odd amount of 4 to a royal, which irritated me even more that none panned out.

I have incomplete sessions here as well. I don't show that you've started more than 5.

Thank you for another fun contest. I would never play this game in a casino, and the multiplier was kind of iffy, most games you did not get manny, actually I even forgot about it because it would rarely come up. Over all it was fun and I thank you again and I'm looking forward to the next contest. As for all VP Gold members that refer to the rest of VP members as freeloaders all I can say is we have a life. I feel like I spend enough time on this website (and love it, it's a great site) as it is, if I were to be a Gold member I would have no friends and I would probably have back and arm pains. Should they have some perks??? Absolutely yes, and they do, so what is the problem???? Thanx again, Rolf
