100%+ Online VP

Are there very many opportunities to play 100%+ VP online? If so, at what denomination?

I play Lasseters, http://www.lasseters.com.au/ , operated by the Australian government. Their 2 pair Joker Wild is 99.4% base;
add in the monthly bonus of $100 with a wagering requirement (WR) of $3000 (3.3%) makes it a 102.7% game.
They also have a monthly bonus of $100 with a $4340 WR (2.3%) for a 101.7% return.
Denomination ranges from 1 cent to $10 per hand, single line only.

I have played Microgaming casinos, such as 7 Sultans or Vegas Villa, 9-6 Jacks or Better, plus good bonuses. Denomination is up to $5, up to 10 play. However, for some reason, Microgaming casinos have stopped offering me bonuses.
Cryptologic casinos such as Omni or Sands of the Caribbean, have 10 play double bonus (99.93%) plus good monthly bonuses. I still play these regularly.

SciFi casino (Real Time Gaming) has 5 cent FPDW and Pick'em, single line. These are fast and a lot of fun.
iNetBet (Real Time Gaming) has kings or better Joker Wild (99.97% plus the 50,000 coin sequential RF = >100%). They offer a monthly bonus. Up to $5.

I've been playing the above casinos for 4 years - the games are fair and casinos are reliable. I have been getting the expected return. However the wagering requirement to qualify for the bonuses are small, especially if you play the higher denominations. So after maybe an hour of play each month, the fun is over. But it is fun and profitable. Read the bonus terms and conditions (T&C) very carefully - or you might not qualify for the bonus.

I have just made a very cursory examination of Lasseter's.
Previewing the "rules" for Joker Wild, they do not give a paytable,
but they do say:

old.

Just asking....

Here's the pay schedule for Lasseter's Joker.

JOKER WILD - 2 PAIR OR BETTER

ROYAL FLUSH 2500
5 OF A KIND 1250
ROYAL W/J 2500
STR FLUSH 250
4 OF A KIND 100
FULL HOUSE 50
FLUSH 30
STRAIGHT 15
3 OF A KIND 10
TWO PAIR 5
Total Return 99.4340%

Re the 91.84% quoted below - I can only surmise that that is the
average payout on the game. That seems low, especially with the
autohold feature, which, by the way, does not provide optimum
strategy.
  In contrast, the Microgaming autohold does provide correct strategy
for 9/6 Jacks. In fact you can set Microgaming (Viper version) in
real time real money autoplay mode. (Although I haven't played
Microgaming for 6 months.)

Thanks, Fred.

I did not download anything and so could not actually look at the paytable.

the problem with on-line casinos is government regulation...every time
i step into a lv casino i thank god for government oversight...don't
think you can say that about on-line casinos at this point in time...

The problem with government regulation is that they are sucking a huge percentage off the top for taxes and fees.

Your reply would have been more effective if you had
left out the negative comments ... and you would have
made my life a little brighter and less complicated.
