Can anybody tell me or point me to an analyzer that can analyze a video poker game which is essentially Joker Poker (Jacks or Better) with the following paytable at 5c:
- Five of a kind: 5000
- Royal Flush (natural or wild): 2500
- Straight Flush: 500
- Four of a kind: 200
- Full House: 50
- Flush: 35
- Straight: 25
- Three of a kind: 15
- Two pair: 10
- High Pair (Jacks or Better): 5
NOTE: There is no pay for a Natural Royal Flush, only for a Royal Flush which I guess means both Natural and with the Joker.
Thank you

500:1 on a royal would appear to offset the 1000:1 on a 5ok.
Unless I'm missing something, it would be hard to believe this can exist for real money, and be fair. if it did exist there would be no reason to analyze this, JUST PLAY IT, as it would come back in the neighborhood of 175% return.Quote: gunbjHello,

Nothing offsets 2:1 on 2 pair.
Violets are blue;
It's a Native casino,
The paytable is untrue.
Did I guess right?

There's obviously no class III game with that paytable.
That was my thought as well, probably not a fair game.
What would a strategy look like if one wanted to give it a try?

It's hard to say because, by it's very nature, it's not that close to anything. I'd probably guess something roughly close to JoB-Optimal, except treating the Joker as the best card that it could be if the game were JoB? I'd think that would get you close.
Even if you didn't have a correct strategy and just went with your gut feeling while playing at a normal speed on a .25 denomination, you would be making over $500 an hour easy with zero variance. I would think a $20 bill would be good enough to get started.Quote: gunbjThanks everyone.
