I know you are asking for slot ideas but since there is currently a thread about a dodgy Casino poker game I thought I would add this.
It is a simple concept but fun to play and it would complement your slot game perfectly.
The player selects their stake then
6 holdem hands are dealt face up at the bottom of the screen.
The player chooses which hand they wish to play.
The flop is dealt and the hands are ranked and displayed so you know which is leading
then the turn is dealt and process repeated.
Finally the river.
If more than 1 starting hand ties with the best hand the player loses.
If the player selected the best hand they win and are payed according to the paytable which obviously gives higher payouts to better ranked hands but you can set this according to the payout % you wish to set.
I made this game and it is great fun as there is a skill element but also you get funny things like having your Aces inevitably cracked by another hand so choosing the starting hand is interesting (is AA better than 9,10 suited? that depends on the other cards on view and the paytable) and watching each hands possibilities as the flop turn and river are dealt adds to the excitement.
There are many variations you could add such as increasing the paytable for playing the starting hand blind.
Giving the player an insurance bet after the flop (the player can choose another hand but should any of their selected hands win they only get there stake back)
Giving the player selected odds on the chances of each starting hand winning.
etc etc.
I am certain this game would prove at least every bit as popular as VP and at least for me it was more fun.
OK that is 2 scorchio ideas for free. The rest die with me

The only difference is (if I remember right) you can choose a hand before the cards are turned over as well. Once the cards are dealt, the payout %'s are adjusted accordingly....and are adjusted after the flop and turn.
However, knowing the business one would in 99/100 never get anything on the spin anyway - so I'll pass... :/
