Nice Double Down Stud Hit.
I know most of you out there don't have this game in the casino's you frequent, and it is too bad because it is a nice diversion. Paytables are at Mohegan Sun in Ct in the 97-98% range which isn't great, but not terrible either. The part I like is since you don't have to spend time deciding which cards to hold, you can play around 1,000 hands an hour without too much trouble. This gives you a good chance to hit one of the bigger hands in an 8 or 10 hour gambling day. Also the penalty for short playing for the Royal is very small. I was out 4 bills earlier today and last night on a job game and luckily the Double Down Stud bailed me out. I was only playing a quarter a hand on Bonus Decues Wild and was dealt Deuces with the Ace. After Doubling the bet after looking at the first 4 cards, the return was the 4 bills that I was out. If you are playing this game or regular Decues Wild all day, it is not unusual to hit a couple of Wild Royals, 5 of a Kinds, even about every 5 trips 4 decues, many quads and a few straight flushes. On the average, you will get more than you bet back every 5 hands, while job is every 4.

I enjoy playing the game here, its fun and it can bail you out of a hole when you are dealt a made hand . As you mentioned, it makes the decision to double down so much easier.

When we are losing at the $1 denom we usually play this at quarters. Its fun and mindless but can keep you going.

Foxwoods has this game too, but instead of paying 2 for 1 on Jacks or better on the 6's or better game, it pays on Queens or better. I can't find the paytable for this one, but it must be bad if the Jacks game is only in the 97 percent range.
