Strategy for WHA (White Hot Aces)?

#1

Hi all,
Tonight I'm headed with friends to an Illinois casino and it says
they have WHA. What kind of strategy can I use for this game? In
other words, is there a separate strategy for just this game or
should/can I use a DB, DW, JOB, etc type strategy? Thanks.

I'm not familiar with the game. What is the paytable, and is there anything special about the game other than perhaps a bonus for quad-Aces? In other words, is there anything wild, and/or any pay differences for other quads ... such as with an Ace kicker, and that sort of a thing? It would be helpful if you could include the names or abbreviations for the hands along with their corresponding values, and specify whether the bottom hand is a pair of Jacks+, ... Queens+, ... Kings+, ... Aces+; ... or even 2-Pair. That way we won't have difficulty in determining the precise paytable without error. I'll take a look at it and compare it to research that I've been doing, although I'm not so sure I can have an answer for you before you leave; what time are you leaving (I assume you're in Central Standard Time zone)? And if I can't get it to you for tonight, at least you'll maybe have something useful for your next trip.

Cheers, and the BEST OF LUCK tonight.

Bill,
Thanks for the quick reply. I did some research and found some more
info on White Hot Aces which I'll paste below. I am going tonight at
about 6pm so I know time is short. Thanks for offering to help. Let
me know what you think of this.

FP = 1-1-3-4-5-9-50-120-240-50-800 (99.24% - 43.0 VAR).

This game is like Triple Bonus Poker Plus, except that straight
flushes return 80 (rather than 100).

1 Pair
2 Pair
3 of a Kind Straight
Flush
Full House
4- 5 thru king
4- 2,3,4
4 Aces
SF
Royal Flush

Aaron, there are two software products that will produce a strategy
for most any game. One is VP Strategy Master, the other is Frugal VP.
Considerable information can be found in the archives of this group
concerning these programs.

A prompt purchase of one of them will put you in the position down the
road where you can generate a strategy yourself on a moment's notice
for use in a situation similar to this.

(I assume Bill will reply with a strategy prepared from one of these
programs.)

Actually, no. That would be too easy :wink: ... and in VIOLATION OF THE LICENSING AGREEMENTS that come with the programs (well, at least with Frugal; I'll need to look again at VPSM).

As you may know, I am preparing to market my own charts. They have greater decimal precision, and instead of striving for 'optimum' strategy, I'm pursuing 'PERFECT' strategy, but still in a condensed but easy to use form. Wanted to prove myself first with the One-Eyed Jacks, which is almost done. I've got a dinner engagement to go to now, so more later.

Cheers.

P.S. Just not enough time to get the White Hot Aces done right now. Sorry.
