Well, It doesn't look like you folks missed me at all. I haven't been on the
internet for 3 weeks and am going over posts all the way back to 7/12.
Very interesting posts, especially about the 4 to the royal questions and
answers. I really hate to brag --not-- but the Fremont Street Commando
knows how to put the number on these 4 to the royal promotions using
nothing but pure logic --but Frugal speeds up the process. I'm very, very
busy but one of these days I'll give up the information in case the promotion
ever comes up again. When tuscany first opened up they put on a 4 to the
royal promotion where they paid 100 coins on all final hand non-paying 4
card royals. I walked in the door and found it. Other pros were on it and I
took there word that the frequency was around 1000. Tuscany got killed on
the promotion and it ended two days after I found it with a sign at the
booth saying "WE GIVE UP".
Now as for one-eyed jacks. I have a friend, probablly the most brilliant VP
player of them all--the man probably has 30 or 40 different vp ,strategies
packed in his head, all of which he plays flawlessly-- who wrote a program
for one-eyed jacks, you can even practice the game with it. He showed it
too me and after seeing how complicated the game is to play I thought to
myself, hell, I'd rather go back to working day labor than play this godawful
game. Even the Fremont Street Commando has his limits.

Does anyone know of a strategy available for One Eyed Jacks. I have
found several machines with the 800/200/75/50/15/5/3/2/1/1 at a native
american casino in MN. Since the return is slightly over 100% according
to the Wiz of Odds and there is nothing else to play there even close
to that return I thought I'd ask.
Having done some research on my own, I fear that there is no correct
strategy available and with no software out there that handles this
game I'll take guidance anyone would be kind enough to offer.
I would guess the strategy must fairly complex with much of the return
at the top of the paytable. I would also guess it has a high variance
and that the strategy must have a lot of long shot draws involved.
