The double bonus deuces game is really a more skewed version of Bonus Deuces so it is easy to configure on Winpoker or Frugal VP. This game cannot be configured on VP Tutor or Stanford Wong VP.

I also believe the progressive feed is 0.25%. You might want to learn one
of the other games on that progressive as there are games with higher
returns than 9-6 JOB on that progressive. The highest is the One Eyed
Jacks which has a reset at 99.98% but is far and away the most difficult
game in the Chicago Area. The excellent strategy I have been given is
three to four times as long as a typical strategy chart not including the
progressive adjustments. This cannot be done on Frugal or VPSM in their
current state. At reset value the RF is a little more common than at JOB
so that at $6300 the difference will be lower as JOB would have a more
frequent change in strategy than OEJW. The double bonus deuces resets at
99.81% and the Triple Pay Plus is 99.80% at reset. That deuce game also is
on the Multi-Strike games at 99.96%.
Thanks for the confirmation on the progressive. The reason I doggedly
stick with JB is only partly due to ignorance. I'd love to squeeze an
extra few tenths percent ER out of my play, but even if I were able to
obtain a strategy for OEJ, it sounds complex and has no practice
vehicle. I also suspect volatility is high. I remain curious, but am
skeptical that it will be highly played by this casual player. I scratched
my head for a while on how to configure the deuces game on my software, but
quickly moved on to the TPP game. After a little practice I have a modest
familiarity with TPP, but I also gain an understanding that the game is
pretty volatile, as I suspect is the case with all the available higher ER
options at the bar. I know there is the distinct possibility that the
session losses for TPP, and like volatile games, will quickly eclipse what
I usually am comfortable with in a casual afternoon of gambling in my
hometown. For example, yesterday I got spanked to the tune of $500 playing
JB --Only 2 sets of quads (5s and dealt 10s) in roughly 2000 hands. The
quad dearth was well below average but certainly not unusual. My losses
playing TPP may have doubled with a similar session. No it's not exactly
good math and driven by psychological bankroll, but I just figure I'll be
playing more hands of JB before cutting a session short due to losses, and
more hands at 100.5% at least approaches the theoretical gain from fewer
hands at 100.8%
OTOH, I learn that some of the strategy changes required in JB with a $6000
royal increase volatility more than I thought --Stuff like breaking high
pairs for 3 cards to a royal.
Sure the buffet is better at Harrah's East Chicago but is there any decent
VP?
Point taken.
