Correction to this. I had Winpoker set with a 4880 progressive (normal BE
point). With a 4000 coin normal royal the TJQ is worth a little over 7.17
so the total value at 9-6 jacks is just over 28.45 coins or $7.113.

Subject: Re: [vpFREE] sequential royal strategy3SRF is weaker than a flush in 9-6 jacks but stronger than a flush in 8-5
bonus or jacks. your $8.60 value is too high. The extra 46000 coins adds a
little less than 21.28 coins to the value of the 3SRF. The best 3SF is TJQ+
two 7 or less. this is almost 7.99 coins so with the bonus it is 29.27
coins or a little less than $7.32 at 9-6 jacks thus the flush at $7.50 is
better. This hand is worth a little less at 8-5 BP.
