I don't know about you but I plan on making it to the 22nd century. I want to see some advancements in the software by then. So all you brainiacs get to work. Video poker-and even video keno- is going to look entirely different by then. I can see the handwriting on the wall.
I ain't no high falutin G2 attendee, but I am a self righteous country idiot that even knows what the term "choppin' cotton" means. Sorry, I had to throw that in about Bobby Streeter, er, Bobby Gentry, you know, that good lookin' girl from up Chickasaw County way that wrote and sang that song "Ode to Billie Joe." That was one hot chick.
Anyways, back to work. I'd like to thank all you video poker software pioneers-but that's all you are, just pioneers. Somewhere down the line a Steve Jobs of the video poker world is gonna come along. And he is gonna make my work a hell of a lot easier.
Take Joker's Vault for example, at least the configuration I have here. It's a one Joker game until you make a full house (wild or natural). Once you make that full house you get ten free games. Though the payscale remains the same there are two jokers in the deck during the free games. Win at least 8 out of those 10 free games and you snap the progressive meter off (Try to figure that one out. I already did. It's a hit rate and combinatorial thing).
Trust me friends, this is what video poker is gonna look like in the 22nd century. I have a lot of other examples but I'm pressed for time right now. l'll list other games later that can't be sized and fully analyzed by existing software today.
And, oh yes, that Bobby Gentry thing. If any of you city folk can tell me what "choppin' cotton" is I would be highly impressed.
