Last week I paid a quick visit to the Oneida casino in Green Bay, WI. They had a video poker game I had never seen before -- Deuces Wild Double Double Bonus. Here is a picture of the pay table.

Note how a three of a kind pays 6 in the far right column. I speculate that what is going on here is that the max bet is six coins. For the sixth coin the player gets all the bonus wins for any natural four of a kind, plus the extra coin for a three of a kind. Everything else pays the same as a five coin bet.
If that is the case, I still get a return over 100%. Here is the return table:
If the player got the pays in the right column for a five-coin bet, the return would be 1.207728.
Maybe I have an error in my scoring function. Or there is something about the rules I'm not seeing.
Has anyone else seen this game before?
The question for the poll is assuming this game had a return comparable to other video poker games, would you play it?

I'm fairly certain I've seen a picture of this game on another site somewhere.
How come you didn't read the rules screen of the game?
