A bank of 6 Double Joker Poker machines at Caesars AC currently has a Royal Flush progressive jackpot of ~$2,900 as of 12AM EST, May 21st. These are 25 cent, 1 line machines with $1.25 max bet per hand.

The comp rate is $1 for every $1000 coin in for an additional 0.1%.

The paytable is as follows

Royal Flush 11,600
Wild Royal 500
5 of a Kind 250
Straight Flush 125
4 of a Kind 40
Full House 25
Flush 20
Straight 15
3 of a Kind 10
2 Pair 5

It's a small AP opportunity, but if you like video poker, and want some future mailers/slot play/free rooms from Caesars AC, have at it.

When I first read the title, the 101.6% stuck out, and I thought you were talking about the Loose Deuces at the D...lol

I would try if I was there! :(

Double joker poker has a very difficult strategy,very few people play it accurately,so well you would prob still have an edge, unless you know this game you might only be playing breakeven.

That + the fact it's a progressive means more money to hit. Still a great opportunity if you can play optimally.

Yeah JB's full, complicated basic strategy costs a player 0.03%. I don't think I have ever seen a full basic strategy that deviates that much from optimal. The exceptions are all over the place.

Playing the 9/6 JoB quarter progressive? lol

That's what I would do until the Royal on Double Joker got above $2000 or so (99.91% optimal; 99.88% basic). The base payout of the 8/5 (quads/full house) game is 98.1%, full-pay is 9/5 and pays 99.97%.

The royal flush progressive on Double Joker Poker ALWAYS resets to $2,000 and goes up from there (9/6 JoB at Caesars AC resets to $1,000). It used to reset at $2,500, and I've seen the progressive as high as $4,500.

I guess the VPFree2 crowd has kept it secret then, or totally overlooked it...lol

Considering it still is a CET property, probably better to still keep it under wraps, especially considering how they slashed and burned Tunica Roadhouse last month. :(

A CET property offering a +EV game? Sounds like the universe is imploding..... I would go burn it out if I lived near there!

Yeah, unless the meter is super, super slow, this sounds like the case. It would be the only one in the entire country to my knowledge.

I'm pretty sure Chauncey can "do," as well.

Progressive jackpots and their growth are completely public knowledge. Presumably including the casino brass that is sponsoring the game.

I really miss the 17/10 Loose Deuces. I played those for years at the bars in Laughlin (Colorado Belle and Edgewater).

Canceled my Roadhouse reservation for July. They went from best in town to don't bother.

The few okay machines they have left are still better than a good chunk of Tunica sadly. I guess you don't want to play 9/6 JoB though (can't blame you). I'll be visiting again eventually and scouring the machines just in case if one of the vpfree posters missed something. I'm also hoping they didn't touch the 2c Double Super Times Pay machines because they weren't above 99% in the first place, just a fun machine to earn free drinks on...lol

I agree, but slot managers can get quite complacent like Tunica Roadhouse was until last month. :(

It's in vpFREE2.com now. Apparently no one ever previously reported it to them. They encourage people using the site to send them updates. Anyone can click on "Send Update" and tell them what to change.

Any changes in increase of players? I see there's 6 machines linked, so I'm sure it's not too hard to get a seat. It might be hard to hit a jackpot at +EV if all the AP'ers come out at night :)
