unusual run on videopoker.com

#1

I was playing videopoker.com's halloween contest. It's 100 play super times pay. On the first 110 hands I received 2 multipliers. Only a 2% chance of receiving 2 or less multipliers ( I used 1 in 15 as the multiplier occurrence).

However, on the first 60 dealt hands ( 6000 total hands) I had 7 royal flushes. 4 of those came from RF4 dealt. Using 40K as the royal cycle, this will occur less than one in 3 billion times. I definitely beat the odds

Has anybody tried vp at Sugarhouse?
If so, what are the pay tables like?

Nice work! I've been playing that the last couple of days and my top score is only 17900 or there abouts. I've played just about every offered version in this contest, but seem to do my best in JOB. Which one are you playing?

Anybody playing anything other than DDB in that contest is not playing to
win. The only way is to get dealt a monster hand with a big multiplier and
only DDB gives you a second possible 1 million+ credit hand. Very little
skill in this particular tournament.

I played in that contest also but only once. The top score was astronomical already on the first day!

"I played in that contest also but only once. The top score was astronomical already on the first day!"

I hate to say it, but it is discouraging in these contests when someone gets "the best that can be gotten" (though that wasn't exactly the case in this one but still....) right away, -- it gets a little hard to be motivated to really try to play it a lot.
Though it's always fun to play....

you really need 2 monster hands to win. If you dont get one in the first 50 plays, quit and play another round.
I've noticed within the first 3 hours of every contest, there is always at least 4 or more players with the equivalent
of a RF and aaaa2 - not easy at all to win.
