Double Bonus Poker Strategy

Double Bonus Poker is a fun video poker variation with a somewhat higher variance than Jacks or Better. It makes up for that higher variance with its bigger payoffs for some of the different 4 of a kind hands available. If you play with the correct strategy, you have a small edge over the house. This assumes no mistakes, though. The next variation in the ‘Bonus Poker‘ family is a bit different than the two we’ve looked at in the most recent articles–‘Double Double Bonus‘ and ‘Super Double Double Bonus‘. ‘Triple Double Bonus’ is well liked by many ‘sharp‘ video poker players even though its returns aren’t anything special.The most player-friendly pay table returns 99.58% and the most common.

In any video poker game, you must bet all 5 coins to qualify for the highest royal flush payout and top payback. But this is especially important with Triple Double Bonus since max bets can win you larger payouts with 4 of a kind.
