The 9/7 JoB pays more than 100% for regular 5 coins bet, so why bother to bet 10 coins to get 98.9%?

Yeah, you missed something. The Strat, and Key Largo, 15 years or more ago.

Did *I* miss anything?

It's only 9/5 without the bonus bet. If you're looking at the game on video poker dot com, I think they screwed up the payouts. For 1 to 4 coins, the game is 9/5. The 5 coin payout is incorrectly shown as 9/7 with a 200 straight flush.

EV would be something like 102.8% if it existed in real life.

99% chance that the paytable is sh** if you 5-coin it.

9/7 JOB .+ EV. Very little about a half a percent.

9/7 double bonus -EV.


NVM, I now see this is on a free VP worthless site.

Hey Axel. Remember Key Largo? In maybe 2001 or so, I first walked in there and found 9/7 JoB, and JW-101%, I think coins, for quarters. I seem to remember they had .25 cb, and many 3X or 5X days. Great low roller play. RIP

The Key Largo play was something like 3% because of promos (double royals, suit of the day, etc.). No wonder they went broke.

Never played there. The place was filthy. Was worried I'd get a staph infection handling the coins there.
