Back to VP (bye bye fleas stuffs).. Why hold AQ or AK in Triple Double Bonus?

Game: Triple Double Bonus
Royal Flush cycle: 45358.1 (approximately)
4 Aces w/kicker cycle: 14,214 (approximately)

Question:
If dealt AKxxx or AQxxx (xxx = junk cards), why does the Best
Strategy lean towards holding of 2 Card Royal Flush (AQ, AK) where
cycle is around 45K instead of just holding the Ace where 4 Aces
w/kicker cycle is much shorter?

You are forgetting about flushes, straights, full houses, trips, 2 pairs, high pairs, they all go into the formula for determining your holds.

You are absolutely correct Albert!
I was just trying to see if I could take some people out of
the "flea" market and go back to chatting about video poker instead.
:< I guess it didn't work since this 'flea' topic kept on coming
back.

Oh well, I tried...
Cheers!!!
