Digest Number 2293/Joe Sixpack strategy for Jacks

Jack Daniel's Straight-up Joe save's a single ace instead of a low pair. I saw it once at the Borgota in Atlantic City.

Here is a question for the math Gurus out there...

Scenario is Joe 6 pack playing video poker with a $300/ day budget.

Scenario 1 he is playing seat of your pants strategy playing 8/5 jacks or
better .
Scenario 2 he is playing the same strategy but 9/6 jacks or better.

Question : How much longer will he last on the 9/6 machine on average , than
on the 8/5 machine, assume that both machines are being played 5 quarters
per hand.

Joe Sixpack plays Jacks with sub-optimal ER strategy. What are his most
costly mis-plays? What are his most frequent mis-plays?

How about-

1) Save suited A-10
2) 3 Royal over Hi Pair
3) Save Ace/Two Hi over Two Hi
4) Save any one or two Hi card inside straights, still tosses 0 Hi
5) Miss all three card SF, except 3 Royal

Any others come to mind? What is the cost...1%?

Joe Twelvepack might save Hi Pair over two pair. Boilermaker Joe saves one
pair over two pair.

BS
