Recently saw some new multi-game machines with Ult X Triple Double Bonus and Bonus Deuces Wild on them.

Interesting, TDB with ultimate X would probably give me a heart attack...haha. Do you know the paytables and multipliers? I'd assume 8/5 for TDB, hopefully I'm wrong.

I don't recall the paytable as I've never played TDB, so not familiar with it (other than being aware of its insane variance). I'll make note of it and report back later in the week.

I probably wouldn't play it unless there were at least a total of 4x in mults waiting for me.

Reporting back as promised. You are wrong - it's 9/6.

Then that game may be decent then. I actually found the same game on newer units at my local casino yesterday. It was set at 9/5 for quarters+. What my dumb self didn't do was record the multiplier payouts.

IF, and that's a big IF, the game has the same multipliers as 10-line DDB, then 9/6 TDB is about 98.9% according to JB's VP analyzer.

The multipliers for DDB 10-play are:
4X for premium quads or better
3X for quads 5-K
12X for full house
10X for flush
8X for straight
4X for trips
3X for 2 pair
2X for JoB

if the straight is lowered from 8 to 7X (most likely change, if any), then the game becomes 98.2%. Premium quads or better may also be lowered to 2X, but that only drops the game down to 98.8% barring no other changes. The game will be a variance mess of course.

its sad when you have to say 98.9 may be decent. I know your comparing it to most other UX machines but still.

Christ, why didn't think of taking pics of paytables on my phone yesterday at Horseshoe Hammond. They now have full-pay ultimate x for 3 play dollars for 6 or so different games including 9/6 DDB.

Full pay for TDB is 9/7 BUT if the multipliers stayed the same, then the game would be illegal in Indiana. The flush is 9X for 9/7 and 10X for all other paytables. I would just play regular 9/7 TDB at that rate though since the return is virtually the same w/o the multipliers.

Be forewarned, the machine and it's neighbor that I took a picture of is a minimum bet of $1.00 making vulturing triple play games on nickels impossible since you can't bet $0.75.



Never saw that option turned on before it wasn't on at Horseshoe. I vultured off a multiplier on nickel TDB yesterday and was dealt AAA. No dice though. :(

Perhaps it's a fluke, where another player came along and played another denomination at 10 coins, but I've seen a couple of the new Ult-X TDB machines where there should have been a multiplier for the next hand, but there wasn't. You don't think they finally put some kind of expiration on the next hand multiplier, do you?

Nice hit! I'm doing a lot more vulturing lately. Still haven't hit a quad while doing it though. :(

What, you couldn't get the AWAK on a multiplier? :)

I might have spoke too soon. This was yesterday.

It was my very first hand of the day, I'm not complaining.



It was also my first hand of the day too, but I am complaining...lol

After that it was all downhill. Couldn't hit on my usual machine, but the lady next to me gets a Royal by just holding two cards, fml.

Then I accelerated the losses to the worst of the year by chasing a 100.8% quarter progressive at the bar ($2150 royal). The best I have seen since I have got back into video poker the last couple of years, so I felt obligated to try. :( Lost about $250 on about $1000 coin-in (my usual session amount). :( And the best game was 2 pair Joker Poker. God that game sucks. I started taking the easy way out on my phone after awhile because I was tired about questioning every 3 decisions. Best hit...holding Joker-9...lol



Bartender also ignored me for 20 minutes, and I move over to the other side with the bartender actually doing work, and some girls (who might have been whores...lol) over there conned me into buying shots for them. They aren't free in Missouri either. I am a stupid idiot.
