For major brands - IGT, Bally, WMS Gaming, Sigma etc. no. (IGT has an "Class
2" game that has a "genie" bonus feature. Class 2 is a term applied to
Indian casinos in a few states that are not allowed to have true video
poker. It is really a slot machine based on bingo or a lottery and is for
all practical purposes is a slot machine. On these it also does not matter
what cards you hold. The machine will use the genie (Other brands use a
"match card bonus") to obtain the intended result if you mis-hold. If there
is no genie or match card then you are playing normal video poker. Normally
the pay tables shown on these fakes are a lot better.) Not getting a 4 of a
kind from 30 dealt trips is hardly unusual and on a given 30 tries will miss
completely about 1/4 of the time. I doubt you were playing a gaffed machine.
6-5 DDB is such a bad game that they do not need to cheat you.

Subject: [vpFREE] RNG question
Hi all. I am a novice, recreational player. I stayed and played (if you
could call it that) at the Westin in St. Maarten. I lost playing at
Double Double Bonus machine's 6/5 payout (yes, that is correct). I realize
that
the odds are embarrassing, but my question is, can a casino (that is non
regulated), work the RNG to deal limited four of a kinds? Besides getting
spanked by the poor payouts, I felt cheated by the number of four of a kinds
that I received. Without embelishing, I would guesstimate, that I was
dealt three of a kind in over 30 situations, to NEVER land a four of a kind
on
the draw! Can casino's that are non regulated, tamper or set payout
limits? Thank you.
Regards,
Steve
