Jackpot Poker Strategy

Introduction

This page contains an analysis and strategy for the game Jackpot Poker, which can be found at the Paf casino.

The actual game has a progressive jackpot. The strategy below is based on a royal flush in hearts paying the same as any other royal. My video poker strategy maker does not have the ability to configure a royal in a specific suit paying more. So, for those strategy changes, I'm afraid that you're on your own.

The following table shows the results when following perfect strategy (basic strategy and all of the exceptions):
