  TENS OR BETTER  
  Tens or Better is a Jacks or Better variation that lowers the minimum hand payout to a pair of 10’s.

Tens or Better offers a long-term payback of 99.1%, which isn’t quite as good as Jacks or Better. Although a pair of tens does pay, a lower Full House and Flush payout more than cancels out this bonus. If you have a choice between the two always go for Jacks or Better.

As always, look for machines with the best payout table. It is not uncommon for casinos to offer the same type of machine with different payout tables.

  ACES AND FACES  
  Aces and Faces is a Jacks or Better variation that has a higher payout for certain Four-of-a-Kind’s. This bonus is partially offset by a lower payout for a Full House or Flush.

The long-term payback for this machine is 99.85%, which is slightly better than Jacks or Better. It is slightly better than Aces and Eights because it is common to hold a single face card while you would never hold a single 8.

  PICK ’EM POKER  
  Pick ’Em Poker is a newer Video Poker that offers a few twists. Players are dealt three cards that they must hold. They are also shown two stacks of 3 cards. The top card of each stack is face up. The player must choose which stack to keep based on their initial two cards and the top stack cards. There is no redraw in Pick ’Em Poker.

Pick ’Em Poker offers a 5 coin bonus for a Royal Flush, a Straight Flush or a Four-of-a-Kind. (The 5 coin bonus for a Straight Flush is 1,199 coins which results in the decimal point in the payout table at right.) The lowest hand offering a payout is a Pair of 9’s.

Pick ’Em Poker offers a long-term payout of 99.95% which is better than Jacks or Better.
