Reason #2 why the Wizard likes Bodog:
No-hassle practice games
Most online casinos spend more effort trying to separate you from your money than they do trying to give you a good experience. They have all kinds of popup windows, they usually make you download their software, and if do they offer play-in-browser games then you have to register an account before you can play. And if you do register then they start sending you emails trying to get you to deposit real money. But Bodog is different. They have no popup windows at all, and their practice games play right in your browser, with no download, and no registration required. You don't even have to give up your email address. It couldn't be simpler: Just one click and you're playing the game. I wish all online casinos showed this much respect for their players. Other casinos practically ask for your first born child to play for free. Meanwhile Bodog is patient and does not twist anybody's arm to play for real money. You can play as long as you like for free with no obligation. The real-money games are available if that's your preference, but if not, you can play the free practice games for as long as you like without hassle. (Visit Bodog) One click and you're in:
No popups, no download, no registration, no B.S., just the game. |

Double Draw Aces is a video poker variation I noticed at the Frontier on October 2, 2005. The game plays like normal video poker except the player gets two draws if he keeps and retains two or more aces on the draw. After the first draw the player may elect to either keep the outcome of that draw or take a second draw. In the event the player chooses the second draw the cards obtained on the first draw will be inserted back in the deck. In other words it is like replaying the first draw, except the second draw is final. The following table shows the possible outcomes under optimal player strategy. The lower right cell shows an expected returnof 96.26%.
The strategy is the same as normal for the specified pay table except as noted.
For those who may be interested the player will not get two aces or break them up 95.832% of the time, keep the first of two ace draws 0.517% of the time, and keep the second draw 3.651% of the time.
