various games

Post by mjterry »



i have a question, 1) not sure where to ask it, 2) not sure if it been asked before but here goes.   if triple double bonus and super double bonus ( where tdb is not offered) are the two highest paying out games, why offer the others in the contests anyway? everyone knows or at least i know you have to play the highest paying out games in order to at least get on the board, which is still 1 /100000000 odds.

Quite a few people play the other game types, most likely because they simply enjoy them the most. They do have a lower chance of winning in some cases, but it does happen from time to time (2nd and 3rd place in the last monthly contest were both playing Deuces Wild... good for a combined $400 in prize money.)Picking the right game type is an important strategy decision. You can certainly improve your odds by making a smart choice. Like you said, we see winners with DDB and TDB more often for a reason.
