right? I assume then that the strategy is the same as regular 8/5 JOB.
Not true. If you MUST play this game (the return is quite a bit below
other games fancied by members of vpFREE --- even though the percentages
aren't published anywhere that I know about as the game is long
out-of-date and not supported by current releases), you need to get an
estimate of how much the quads pay on average. If your estimate is 175
(and I'm picking a number randomly, not one that I know is accurate) and
develop your 8-5 Jacks strategy using the higher quad amount. It will be
very similar to 8-5 Jacks, as strategies aren't very sensitive to the
return on quads, but a few of the plays are different.
