Aces Bonus Poker

#1

I am wondering what the 4 4A$- or -A$ hand is in this game. It pays
as much as a royal so it must be rare.

Thanks
Bob

#2

I have played Aces Bonus Poker many times, when I find the 8/5
paytable. But I have never spelled the -ACE$ or ACE$-. In fact, I have
never seen anyone do it. But if a casino only has 99% games, it is a
game I like.

It might have seemed like a dumb question, but I still need to
guess as to what the answer is. From your response I am guessing
that each ace also contain a letter (A,C,E,or S). Is there another
card with a $ sign that would need to be before or after the word
ACES is spelled? I was serious about the question and when looking

···

at the games (help) button I found no explanation. Thanks --- In vpFREE@yahoogroups.com, "Charles" <fromthevault@y...> wrote:

They have a dollar $ACES Bonus poker progressive at the Edgewater in
Laughlin. It was hit last spring for $75,957. Yes, it does happen.

Looks like no one answered your question -
YES, there an additional huge letter on all four Aces- an A, C, E and a $.
So they have to come in in the order ACE$ with the extra card at the front or back.
If you sit at the game you can't miss it.

Maybe no one wants to discuss strategy - but I believe it is no different than 8/5
bonus which is = to 9/6 JoB. One exception might be break up a full house of Aces
to keep 3 Aces if they're positioned.

Maybe two positioned Aces is kept over two pair? (My instinct says no..).

================================

I agree with Mark's assessment of this game. The only

paytables that I've ever played were identical to 8/5BP plus a
"Sequential Aces" payoff of 4000 coins.

If I am going to play BP anyway, I try to find the Bonus Aces
variety. It's just a little extra payoff (no matter how high the
odds against actually drawing the hand) w/o sacrificing anything.
In most casinos, the Bonus Aces are usually found side-by-side with
the regular BP.

I also think that Mark is right on target with possible strategy
changes. I would break up a 3 ace full house, if the aces were in
the jackpot positions. I'm also sure that you don't throw away a
2 for 1 two-pair, to keep 2 positioned aces.

Has anyone figured out the strategy on this? I can't imagine how it
would be possible to calc it on WP.

I've found AcesBP to be entertaining for short periods of time, when
I'm tired of DB, realizing of course, the EV that I'm sacrficing.

In all the hours I've spent playing vp, over the course of 20+ years,
I've never seen anyone hit the seq. aces. But we can always hope.

I wa once DEALT the 4 aces in sequence for almost $47,000 and I
personally know 2 other people who have drawn to and gotten the 4
aces. One for $22,500 and the other for almost $75,000. These were at
the Edgewater in Laughlin. Current meter $33,800.

It is rare , 2 times out of 120 ways to get 4 Aces qualify for ACE$ - I haven't done it yet, but casino employees tell me they have seen it. If you get 4 Aces 1:5000 then 4 Aces this way would be about 1:300,000 - most of us would have a sore tush sitting that long.

We have a bank of these in 7/5 and 3 progressives, the RF, the ACES_,
and the reg. quad aces. I have never personally seen the ACES_ hit,
but over the last 4-5 months I know it has been reset 2 or 3 times, I
dont know the feed rate, but with 3 progs it cant be too much and the
ACES_ usually gets to 12-15k before it hits, kind of like the lottery,
not many winners, but good for the lucky one that gets it.

Happy Royals
