Joker Poker

#1

I'm not positive about the one coin payoff for the royal in 99.92% 2 pair Joker, but if you want to see the paytable for this game yourself in a Las Vegas casino, you can go to the Westgate. I've seen it there recently at the locations listed in the database.

I've seen the 100.65% Kings or Better Jokers Wild at several Station Casinos. Don't know about the AC 2 pair Jokers.

Another Joker paytable that I see frequently is the 99.29% 18/7 Kings or Better version with a 4700 royal.

I’m having trouble verifying the following paytables since I have never played any of these games. Particularly in the second column (2-pair), if you get a royal with one coin you get paid 1000 and there is no “bonus” on the royal if you played full coin??? That seems very unusual to me. Is this game actually still in a casino?

Actually can you still find any/all of these paytables in a casino? Are there any other “fairly good” paytables around? Private or public answers will be appreciated.

I was at the Westgate at the end of April. I don't think I can attach a picture here, but the paytable for the Royal on the 2 pair JW was: 500, 1000, 1500, 2000, 5000.

The hold logic with the joker and junk cards is counter intuitive. The basic rule is #1 hold Joker with card value 7,Next option #2, hold Joker with either 8 or 6 ( pick which card is least penalized by flush or straight card), #3 Joker with a 10 (wild royal possibility), #4 hold Joker plus 9 or 5 which ever card is least penalized, # 5 Joker alone (almost never happens) when all cards are 4,3 2 or a Jack, Queen. I call it mental masturbation but it makes one hesitate and think occasionally.
