Just finished my page on Multi-Streak Poker. Briefly, it is another triple-play video poker game with multipliers. Players earn multipliers on up to the next three hands based on their hand on the draw. Obviously, this game has vulturing opportunities. With any abandoned multipliers beyond 1x -- play it!
Please click the link and let me know your thoughts. As always, I welcome comments, questions, and especially corrections. The question for the poll is would you play Multi-Streak Poker given the same return as conventional video poker?

The table at the bottom has the heading "Deuces Bonus Poker — Some versions" but this isn't correct, right?
Also some same games at the bottom have different feature returns, is this correct?

I'd certainly vulture the game, but Multi-Strike will forever be my game of choice if I want to play a multiplier Variant straight up.

Agree with you Mission146. Multi-Strike is one of my all time favorites.
I would play Multi-Streak again, but I wish the multipliers were more defined for me the first time I played it. The problem I had was that I was getting multipliers but had no idea how I was receiving them. It took me awhile to figure out that it is based off the winning hand.

That's what is excellent about Multi-Strike, in my opinion. While there is a steep curve due to the fact that there is a different strategy for each stage of the game, at least the how and why of a player moving up from level to level is easily understandable.
However, even that understandability doesn't even always matter, you wouldn't believe how many people I've seen sit down at UX, or even something like Wheel Poker, believe it or not. Even though it clearly said what the point of Wheel Poker is on the display, I had a guy turn to me at a nearby casino that used to have it and say, "I have no idea why I'm betting the extra quarter each hand." I made some joke about it seeming like you never get what you need, and he replied, "What do I need?"
In my opinion, Wheel Poker sucks, though, and it is actually gone from that casino now. I'd just as soon play BPDx straight up.
