I'm still not sure quite how the cash-back effects the strategy ..."
It's the amount of royal that would result in a breakeven play, so for 9/6 Jacks its about a royal of 4900, for 9/6 Jacks plus 0.46% cashback it would be the same as maxEV strategy. It's used to play royal progressives, it's a fixed strategy relative to the royal and doesn't vary with the current progressive value. Most importantly, it gives you the minimum cost to hit a royal, hence the best return from a royal progressive. It generally takes a bit longer than maxEV strategy. Frank's book on "Secret World of Video Poker Progressives" has the details if you're interested.
