Some of the four of a kind payoffs depend on the 5th card, known
as a kicker.
Over the previous Jacks
Or Better Double Bonus, this new variation went on to a raise
the payout even more for hitting 4 of Kind Aces. Not only that but
it was counted the 5th card known as a kicker. If the kicker was a
low card 2, 3, or a 4 the payout is doubled.
Kind of vice versa, if you hit 4 of Kind 2's, 's or 4's with an Ace,
2, 3 or 4 kicker you also get a very high payout.
The pay table is typical of a video poker that offers higher payouts
at the top of the table. These are off set by giving lower pay outs
for the more often hit winnings hands. The greater the potential glory,
the greater the chance for disaster. The higher four of a kind payouts
are offset against lower full house, flush and straight payouts.
If this is the video poker game of your choice try and find a 10/6
version which offers over 100% payback.
