Do not know what bad plays are common at jacks but no question about it
that the most expensive common bad play is the save of JJ, QQ or KK versus
two pair on DB and DDB type games. This decision comes up about every fifty
plays and with a 45 coin FH the mistake costs a little over 1.165 coins.
(Over 1.53 coins if the FH pays 50.)There are nine casinos in the Chicago
Area (where I am from) and I am certain that each of them makes $1 million
plus per year from that play alone! (And of course anybody that makes that
play, also misplays many more hand types fattening the casino's take!!)

>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 RoyalAny 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.
