Double Pay Poker
Introduction
Double Pay Poker is a common video poker variant in which the player bets on both the deal and the draw. The pay tables on the draw are standard video poker tables that are found elsewhere in my video poker section . This section shall address only the pay tables on the deal. The returns on the draw hand tend to be within 1% of the deal returns, assuming optimal strategy. To get a combined return average the deal return found here and look up the draw return in my section on deuces wild , double bonus , double double bonus , or triple double bonus.
