BB,
Last time I was there they still had it at the Bar by the Sportsbook but I haven't been in there in about 5 weeks now. Kinda dead time of the year for Sports and there are better places to play Video Poker although they do have 9/6 Jacks or better right by the Sports Book. I will go by and check this weekend.

First off some of the locals told me that they changed the games and the new machines suck big time. The only game there is a game called Pick a Pair ! Since I have never played this game I decided to give it a go. I will first give you the pay schedules

Royal Flush = 10,000
Straight Flush = 1000
4 Aces with 2,3,4 = 4000
4 2's,3 or 4 /A,2,3,4 = 2000
4 A's = 2000 4 2,3,4 = 1000
4 5- K = 500
full House = 100
flush = 80
Straight = 80
Straight = 60
3 of a kind = 25
2 pair = 15
Jor better = 10
9/10 = 5
Kinda fun game for sure but I have no idea what the % pay back is for this game. I hit 4 /10's for $ 500 early so I was on my way..... to more beers that is !I had 4 parts of a Royal Flush dealth to me but unfortunatedly I had to throw away 1 parts of it and ended up with nothing. I cash out for a $ 200. profit thanks to mucho beers !

Kermit, so you confirm there is no more Pick'em?

Can anyone run a simulation for the above game, just at first glance, this game can't be right. The payout would appear to be over 100% with this game.

Fish, what's it look like to you. Kermit, you sure you have the pay table right?

BB,
I am sipping on a nice cold Coca Cola right now... Does that qualify as drinking ? OK Sorry ... I will switch to something a little better right now !
What you have to understand in the game at the Hilton Sportsbook Bar is that almost everying is harder to hit than normal. I will try to illustrate..
They deal you only 4 cards like this say Pick one
10 diamonds 10 hearts 10 spades 10 Clubs

If this happens ..... You cannot get 4 10"s even if you were dealth 4
Why ? Because you have to choose only one of the stack under the two 10's on your right ! If you choose the 10 of spades.... You cannot get the 10 of clubs back. Same thing goes if at any time you get 4 parts of a Royal dealth to you..... You cannot keep all 4 of the cards dealth to you. New and strange game. It had me scratching my heard a lot trying to figure out the best Mathematical move to make. You didn't understand all the problems this game creates as it has lots of disadvantages and I cannot see anything that would make it much easier. I would say it is under 100 % payback but also nobody knows the correct way to play it yet. Fun game though and somehow my luck and mucho glasses of Bud survived for a $ 200 profit thanks to getting dealth 3 10's and hitting the 4 th one. I also had a nice 4 parts of a straight flush in diamonds dealth to me but .... totally worthless as you can't keep all 4 ! Refigure your Math but trust me.... Way Way less than 200 % and if you listen to the locals... way less than 100 % Put me in with the locals until I see how to play correctly.
See you at the Bash I hope !:money: :money8: :103631605

The best game at the LV Hilton is now 9/6 Bonus Poker Deluxe; 99.64% before any cash back. Easy to play as well; the strategy is almost identical to 9/6 JOB. This game is available next to the race book, not at the bar, and is available in quarters only.

Plain old Jacks or better is available next to the Sportsbook in Nickels, quarters and Dollars.

There are many books written on the payoffs on almost all the major games. Bob Dancer has several that I have purchased but you can find many at the library also. There are several sites on the computer also that will tell you how to correctly learn the game. All the percentages are with 100 % perfect play of course ! 9/6 j/b is a very easy game to perfect but don't try to play perfect while drinking !:toast:
