MULTI STRIKE POKER RIPOFF?

If you play only one line then the RF is 1250. Some Multi-Strike games are
set to do this for multiple lines as well so you must beware. Most pay the
4000 coins (or multiples on higher levels) if you play two or more lines.
When checking a paytable set the number of lines to 2 or higher. The
numbers shown in the Bob Dancer article assumes that. 9-6 jacks is 99.79%
with proper strategy. See the BD article for the 6-4-2 rule.

Subject: [vpFREE] MULTI STRIKE POKER RIPOFF?

   Here in Detroit, at Motor City Casino, they have six Multi
Strike Poker machines with a sign above them that says:

   "UP TO 100% PAYBACK! PRACTICE YOUR POKER FACE."

   All of the games listed (7) have the royal set at only 1200
credits, except for Triple Bonus, which has it at 2000. Am I missing
something here? How can a game like Jacks or Better at 99.54% have a
payback of 100%, or any of the other games, with the royal set that
low? Does the percentage go up as you go up the lines? That much?

   I was going to file a protest with the Michigan Gaming Control
Board, but I thought I would wait and see if I've overlooked
something.

   For you folks who are not familiar with the game, check out Bob
Dancers article on it at multistrikepoker.com.
