Some maths
I have a question concerning the Jacks or Better video poker from Chartwell (the regular one, not the zero lounge one at Betfair, we will see why later):
When we take a look at the payout table, we see that the numbers are logical except the Royal Flush when played with 5 coins.
The payout should be 1.250 (250 X 5) but it's 4.000.
That mean that people playing with 5 coins have a higher edge than people playing with less coins....it shouldn't be like that, am I wrong ?
Now, if we check the Zero Jacks or Better payouts (at Betfair), we see that all the numbers are the same compared to the normal JoB except the Royal Flush payouts.
On normal JoB, Royal Flush pays 250, 500, 750, 1000 and 4000.
On the Zero JoB, it pays 976, 1952, 2928, 3904 and 4.880.
Having the Zero JoB payout table which represent 100% redistribution and the normal JoB payout table, could somebody calculate for us the redistribution % for the normal JoB for 1, 2, 3, 4 (it should be the same for less than 5 coins) and 5 coins played (it should be much higher) ?
