Default Promo Still Going.. But

They still have the promo on the three card poker game today... But It is only double on the PLAY bet... Still a advantage? Probably? Maybe ? Maybe 10% player advantage... I'm not sure. It starts at 11am!

Where were you guys? I played the three card poker game for 10 hrs straight yesterday. I made $1000. My Gf played for a couple hours and won $600. I had heads up play most of the time. With double pay on the Play bet I figured the optimum strategy was max bet on the Ante bet and I didnt play the pair plus bet at all. So I bet $25/hand on the ante and I would play when i had Q/7 or higher. It seemed like I would win the play bet when the dealer qualified about 1 out of 5 times winning a extra $25. So it seems like i should have won a lot more than I did, or else i just had really bad luck. The pace of play was around 60 hands/hr. So that should be 12x$25= $300/hr extra minus the house edge of about 8% 2400 wagered per hour -$192/hr = Ev should be $108/hr. Can anyone verify this? The promo goes through Sept. 3rd 11;30 am- to around midnight. Every Weekday. Prarie's Edge casino Granite Falls, MN.

According to Wizard of odds I believe the house edge is less than 4% including the 50cent rake. so guess i just got unlucky since the ev should be 200/hr or more.

Do you know how far that is from Fargo? It would definitely be +EV for me to take off of work for this!
