Your Joker's Wild video poker information page (
https://fortunejack.com/game/videopoker/)
shows the house edge to be only 1.40%.
Using the pay table on the game itself, (no multipliers that I have seen)
I am showing the house edge to be 4.54%.
Have I messed the numbers up, possibly missing something?
Or are your numbers incorrect?
EDIT: I apologize if this has already been covered in the thread. I did not read all the way through it.
I am also confused by their return, I think their number may be wrong. I use a video poker calculator:
http://www.winnergambling.com/casino-tools/video-poker-payout/, the expect return is 95.15%
So I just wonder which expect return is correct. I prefer 95.15% one.
I use a calculator as well, but it is a bit more involved than the one you reference imo, although the results are still very close.
I checked out the calculator that you posted and the default pay table for Joker's Wild that is preloaded into it revealed the 1.4%* house edge.
(*My calculations show the standard pay table provides a 1.4013% house edge.)
I will show them side by side below:
FortuneJack Standard
Either, fortunejack needs to correct their info to reflect a ~4.7% house edge or change the payouts.
FortuneJack, I view this as a major issue that is just as important, if not more important, than a wallet security bug.
I would hope we are on the same page in this regard. I, also did not see a house edge percentage posted at all regarding blackjack. I will look into that next.
Should I post this to the bugbounty email? or would you rather just pm me here?
I have not read the whole thread, but I would assume this has not been mentioned otherwise it would have already been corrected one way or the other. Surprising to say the least because the thread is ~6 months old.
P.S. fox, I do not think you would prefer the 95.15% unless you are the house.
Thank you for the research you conducted regarding the Video Poker House Edge, but you are forgetting "Rebet" button. FortuneJack is the only crypto casino offering Rebet after last draw, meaning if you have let's say 4 of a kind after two draws, you can go for 5 of a kind by drawing 3rd time, this increases the chances of striking more winnings, thus lowering house edge to 1.4%.
We have made some mistakes before calculating house edge and had 3 rebet options available for the players, that set House Edge to - 17.2% (negative), where players won around 40 BTC in several minutes while playing with the bug, obviously we payed them out but since then, we decided not remove 'Rebet' from the game, as it makes the game unique in the crypto industry (these winnings were discussed in the thread).
None of the calculators you provided include Rebet option, so comparing regular types of gameplay and payout to the Video Poker provided on FortuneJack, is a mistake.
