Video Poker Pay Table?

[Inveterate Cruiser]

I have been trying to research VP JoB pay tables on the various cruise lines. Based on what I have seen on Carnival Vista and what I have found on CC, here is the info I have obtained right now:

 

(Correct as at 15 Sep 2022)

 

Carnival : 6/5 (5% House edge)

Celebrity: (Single-line) Modified 7-5 (8.6% HE) ; Multi-line 6-5 (5% HE)

RCL: 6/5 (5% HE) 0.25 denom ; 8/5 (1.4% HE) $10/25 denom

 

Anyone has info for MSC?

 

Thanks in advance!

Just got off Divina.  They have 6 multi denomination vp machines - quarter, $1 & $5.  Pretty sure the pay table didn't change by denomination.  I prefer 50 cents on TDB, but they didn't have it so I bounced between quarter and dollar on 6/5 DDB.

Thanks for posting the paytable for DDB and congrats on your great win! You wouldn’t have noted the paytable for JoB would you? DDB is bit too volatile for me…..

Sorry, I didn't even look at JOB.  I am a volatility junkie!  I am guessing JOB it will also be 6/5.

I know this is an old post, but I wanted to share the recent VP paytables for MSC World Europa (as per September 2024): 

 

JoB on 0.25/0.5/1$ denom: 6/5 (5.4% HE on max bet, 6.5% HE on lower bets)

JoB on 2$ denom and above: 7/5 (4.2% HE on max bet, 5.3% HE on lower bets)

 

These are terrible paytables even for a cruise ship, but unlike Royal, MSC gives the same amount of points for VP than for other slots. So its still a decent play. 

 

The best option in my view is the video blackjack, which as lower HE (approx. 4%) and much lower volatility. Great machine to grind points with the max bet of 10$ per play.

The Game King has 6-5 at 25 and dollars and then a “generous” 7-5 at $2 and higher. I’ll check theSuperstar machines later
