If you have the choice between double double bonus and triple double bonus why would you play double double bonus?
Unless you have access to 9/7 TDB, and you have 9/6 DDB available, the DDB has a significantly higher return.

Plus, TDB requires a much larger bankroll due to its massive swings.

Yeah, I rarely find a casino that offers a higher payback TDB game than DDB.

For a few hands, yes - for the rest, no.

About 17.5% of the game return is tied up in the premium quads and premium quads with kickers hands. If you don't get at least one of those in a session (their combined probability is less than 0.1%), you're doomed.

The one rare place  where I found TDB to be the better play is at the MGM M Life casinos, but you must play at higher denominations to get 9/7 TDB. Luxor/ExcaliburMGM (1 line spin poker) is where you could play it for $1.Not sure if the big swings (0.1% chance) and many W2Gs is worth the extra 0.04% return for the long run that you will get than playing 9/6 JoBI think the SouthPoint has 9/7 TDB and 9/6 DDB

It basically is from one own preference I believe.

My answer is the highest returning game at your most comfortable denomination you can afford to play at the casino.
