John Kane was on a hell of a winning streak. On July 3, 2009, he walked alone into the high-limit room at the Silverton Casino in Las Vegas and sat down at a video poker machine called the Game. HOT ROLL VIDEO POKER: Available in Triple Play, Five Play and Ten Play versions, Hot Roll takes a wager of 10 coins per hand to activate the bonus feature. Instead of the 15-coin max bet on basic Triple Play, the max is 30 coins for Triple Play with Hot Roll.

I noticed a video poker variant called Hot Roll Poker at the Suncoast yesterday. The idea is if the player doubles his bet then one in six times he will get a multiplier. The multiplier is the sum of the roll of two dice. The expected return and strategy are the same as conventional video poker.

I never thought I'd get to say this but, 'I beat you to it!'

Although, I couldn't say for sure, at the time, that the multipliers definitely had a 1 in 6 probability of occurring. In that post, however, I was able to determine that one in six was a minimal case because the visual representation of dice must conform to the randomness of physical dice and would, thus, have an average roll of seven.
By the way, there doesn't seem to be a link for this game on the Video Poker Paytables Main Page, yet:
http://wizardofodds.com/games/video-poker/basics/#toc-ReturnTablesIt is indeed a Nevada regulation that video representations of dice must conform to natural odds, like real dice. I think it is just coincidental that the probability of getting a multiplier at all is 1 in 6 (a natural die probability).
Another way they could have done the game would be roll the dice on every throw and award the multiplier if the roll were a pair. They could also do a separate roll for each line.

I didn't link it up yet. I always give WoV members the first opportunity to see anything new.Can this game be vultured?

Can this game be vultured?

No. It plays very similarly to super times pay and double super times pay. You can get a dice roll before the deal or you can get a roll after you draw, but you cannot get both. STP you can only get it before the deal. Double STP you can get before deal or after the draw..or both.
This game is very fun to play.Thanks tring for those corrections.
I can say the pay tables are the Suncoast are stingy, at least the machine I checked. As a general rule, I think it is worth the time to check pay tables on video poker variants like this.

That I can believe.
Out here where stingy paytables are the norm, Hot Roll seems to offer less stingy options.

I think it is coincidental, too, but ended up being the easiest thing to do:

Since the player must bet double to get a feature, and assuming the player gets a feature, the average value must be 7x, then you could say that play is worth (.5 * 7) = 3.5
Given that such is the case, now they would want to look at how many plays (worth only half the normal base pay because of no feature) it would take to make the game balance out. IOW, they need a total that, divided by the number of games on average to get the feature, equals one, but slightly more than one (increased ER) would work.
5 * .5 = 2.5 + 3.5 = 6....5+1=6....6/6=1....Thus, one in six plays.

So, I agree that it probably ended up being coincidental, but kind of neat how it works.
