Introduction to acey deucey bonus poker
Online acey deucey bonus poker is a variation of the normal draw poker game. The difference lies in the payout of four of a kind hands. There is a special payout for four aces or four deuces.
The game commences like any video draw poker game. The player buys his chips, which are credited to his account. The player then chooses the denomination of his wager. Most machines have denominations up to $1, but there are machines that offer $5 and even $10 denominations. That done the player clicks the deal button to get five cards.
The objective is to try for four aces or four deuces if possible. Hence often the player may have to choose between trying to get four aces or four deuces. For example if he is dealt two aces and a deuce it would be advisable to replace the deuce. The probability of getting four aces or four deuces is very low. It has been calculated as 0.000371. This means that less than 4 hands out of every 10,000 will be Acey Deucey hands. Hence the player also has to take a call on whether to try for Acey Deucey hands or aim for hands that have a lower payout but higher probability. For example a full house will have a chance of 9 out of 1,000 hands and a flush will have a chance of 1 out of 100 hands.
The player decides which cards he should hold by clicking on them. This is the most crucial decision and should be taken with care. Then the player clicks on the draw button to replace the remaining cards. The computer evaluates the final hand with the payout table and credits the winnings, if any, to the player’s account.
