Ending hand Four to the Royal without a pay.
ie: high pair, flush or straight invalidates the bonus
Bonus is 100 coins in any suit.

Best games are double deuces 99.6% and 8/5 bonus 99.16% (3 and 5
play). Casino is Mahoney's Silver Nugget in North Las Vegas.

Back in March they also had $.25 DB97 (single line). Haven't been
there since though.

What is this worth in % terms?

A quick calculation in my head comes up with 1% if your a fast player. If they allow you to collect on each and every line a 'scare' its probably worth more. I have had plenty of 4 card royal dealt hands in 5-play where nothing came in on any of the lines. Can you imagine collecting $125 everytime this happened? A similar promo was at the Main street station about 5 years ago, but they only gave you $10 for the scare. I made a lot of money on that promo playing 10/7/80 DB. Holding a 3 card royal in a five play will often give you that 4 card royal with nothing especially in the double deuce game where a high pair is worthless. I'd go for it, even though I smell a rat - cause its too good of a great promotion and the pro's are bound to ruin it.

Why would it be any different if you are a slow player?

They run this promo every so often and I'm almost sure there are
limitations on multi plays. I also remember MSS as only a $5 bonus on
the four card royals. Ran for quite awhile when they first opened.
