Short Coin Royals

Spinpoker and Spinpoker Deluxe will pay 4000 (4700 or 5000 on some joker
games) if you play 5 coins per line played. It is somewhat tricky on some
Spinpoker games to select an even number of lines. Spinpoker Deluxe is easy
to select any number of lines.

I have been playing 50 and then 100 play JOB allmost exclusively for
close to three years and well over 100,000 maybe close to 200,000
hands. This happened to me once in my first year on a 50 play with a
3 to SF 0 high cards. In the last two years since moving up to 100
play it has never happened. I suspect that getting nothing with
correct stratagy on one of these machines is just about as rare as
being dealt a royal. This has never happened to me but I guess that
with my amount of play I'm not due for another 5 years. Too bad we
didn't get the royals instead of the zips. Also I will have to check
the pay tables to see the short coin royal pays. I guess in these
three years I've never bothered to look.
On another note, does anyone know of any other type of multiplay
machine that can be played at max coin per hand with less than max
hands played?
