Hold three to a Royal Flush in Spin Poker, and, dang! The darn Jack and 10 of Hearts land on the same reel after the draw!
Would you pay an extra credit for insurance that would swap the upper or lower card to the center position on the remaining reel, thus yielding the highest payout? Insurance would only be offered when you hold three to the Royal.
Your thoughts, world?
An idea: Spin Poker with Royal Flush Insurance

I could see insurance being offered when dealt 4 to the royal and not 3. In your scenario are you saying that: when dealt 3 to the royal one of the required cards (if on line 1 or 3) for the royal were to be swapped, thus giving you 4 to the royal, you hit draw and hope for the fifth royal card?

The scenario:You are dealt 10, Jack and Ace of Hearts on reels 1, 2 and 4. When you hold them, the machine offers insurance with wording like "Don't lose that Royal Flush to stacked cards!" and plays an animation demonstrating how the last two cards would move to the center payline if they land on the same reel.Accept the insurance and you draw Queen and King of Hearts in the upper and lower positions of reel 3. The King moves to the center position and the Queen moves to the center of reel 5. The same would also happen if they're vertically adjacent on the same reel.When you hold four of the Royal Flush, you're in no danger of losing to stacked cards.

Not sure about your specific idea but I think royal flush insurance in general is a really good idea from a commercial point of view. Something like you pay an extra coin per hand with 3 or 4 to a royal and get a corresponding payout if you miss.

For one extra coin a line, absolutely! I think the "fair price" is much higher than this.

I would totally pay 1 extra coin per line!
