I've seen a few of these mutli-strike machines with the Super Times Pay (STP) feature.
but cant find any info on them (ie: write up + Return tables) at the wizardofodds site? :(

ie: multistrike stp (9/6 ddb)

9/6 ddb = 99%
multistrike (9/6 ddb) = 99.2%
multistrike stp (9/6 ddb) = ?
variance = ?
Craps is paradise (Pair of dice). Lets hear it for the SpeedCount Mathletes :)

There's a discussion of MultiStrike + STP machines in this thread: https://wizardofvegas.com/forum/gambling/video-poker/8730-multistrike-stp/ .

Seems like the consensus is that when STP is activated, the free ride probabilities are dropped so that the game's EV stays close to the same. Also, the strategy gets even harder for minimal gain and higher variance, so the thread recommends sticking with just MultiStrike.

STP MS essentially has 12(?) different strategies: 1x, 2x, 3x, or 4x on line 1, 2, or 3. However, some are likely to be quite similar (although I haven't wasted the time to calculate them all out....not a quick process).
