I expect the 2-card outcomes refer to your first two cards only, though it would be better if that was made explicit.

During auto-play, if the correct play is to double, but I don't have enough chips to double, the deposit pop-up keeps appearing and disappearing over and over.
it also did this when you busted your roll in auto-play mode and had it cranked to max bet but only had like 4 credits left
(i.e. I don't win the royal flush every time I set it to auto-play and go to bed)

Another bug? I cannot act - all the buttons are grey. There was an error message in a pop up dialog, but I didn't make a note of what it said:
Just so it doesn't look like I'm ignoring you -- we chatted in the chat system and worked out what happened here. Basically, I restarted the server at the most inopportune moment:) I refunded you the credit for that game and so far it looks like things are going well.

The blackjack screen is flashing "PLAY 10 CREDITS" at me, even after I changed the bet size to 6 credits.
Is that a bug, or am I misunderstanding what it's trying to tell me?

Ah, I can see the confusion here. "PLAY 10 CREDITS" is a banner similar to the video poker one that says "PLAY 5 CREDITS", advertising and enticing you to play up to 10 credits.
Your actual bet amount is in the white text, BET 6. That's what you'll pay per hand.
I'll note down that this is confusing and we'll do something about it.

Please provide as much feedback as you can! We're eager to hear what everyone has to say.
I don't see the rules listed anywhere.
How many decks do you use? How many times can I split? Can I hit split aces? Double any two cards? Double after split? Surrender? Dealer hits soft 17? Etc...
Sorry! We meant to put the rules out but it completley slipped my mind. Here are the rules:
5 decks, shuffling before each deal
Split up to 3 times
Can not hit split aces
Can resplit aces
Can double on anything
Can double after split
Insurance is available
No surrender (yet, we just haven't implemented this. Do you think it's wanted?)
Dealer doesn't peek
Blackjack pays 3:2
Insurance pays 2:1

I was inspired by your first royal flush win, deposited 1 BTC and left it to auto-play on the 1 mBTC game. Many hours later I quit, with a balance of 0 credits, and decided that would be a good time to retire from my bitcoin video poker career.
So did it stop automatically? And does it ever try to auto-double a royal flush win?
Congratulations on the 2nd biggest video poker win in bitcoin history.
[...] sort of wondering if it stops when you hit a royal (I know I hit a royal before on the .001 version, but I was so fired up to win those 2 coins I really forgot if auto-play stops or not when it hits.

Always willing to gamble, and really scratching that late-night degen urge, I left autoplay running with about 1000 credits in it when I went to bed, and it *almost* hit right at 4:20am which of course when mixed with the 4.20 btc deposit would mean that it's all rigged for thc-based gambling wins.

thank you once again BTC vid poker!
I was having a few beers last night in between diaper changes, getting some work done. I deposited 3.33 coins and of course click autoplay / auto-double 50% / fastest. boy can that thing suck down 3.33 coins quickly. Much like Marshawn Lynch, I have so much determination though. I re-deposited what turned out to be a very lucky 4.20 coins, the Bankroll in .005 credits was up around 1000 when I went to bed, just leaving autoplay running and sort of wondering if it stops when you hit a royal (I know I hit a royal before on the .001 version, but I was so fired up to win those 2 coins I really forgot if auto-play stops or not when it hits.

I have a stuck game. I clicked "Draw" for a game and nothing happened. The "Draw" button went blank, but 5 credits (at .005 per credit) were deducted. I left, and a few minutes later, heard a deal happen. The hand is 2c 5c Qd 5c Kh. So I clicked to hold the kings, and hit Draw again. Again, it froze. Now, if I try to reload, it tells me I'll forfeit the bet by doing that.
I'm not sure what's up. The site seems to be down, but I got dealt a hand.

Hey -- sorry that this happened to you. It sounds to me like it was a simple network connection error. Can you email [email protected] with the first 10 digits of your account id (or your player name) along with more details about what happened?
I went looking through the game log and didn't see anything suspicious but we may be able to work something out for you. E-mail us and we'll get back to you asap.

1) I hit a royal flush obviously loading with 1 btc / .001 max bet / autoplay / let it run for a while on my other monitor. Pix or it didn't happen:
Looking at the chat in that pic it looks like you had it auto-doubling for you.
Does the auto-doubler ever try to double the royal flush jackpot? Maybe you were just lucky that it didn't lose the jackpot for you?
Congrats on your win.

I see there is a progressive for the RF now for 5 coin bets. At 4888 payout for the RF the game becomes 100% payout.
Only if you modify your playing strategy optimally, taking the size of the jackpot into account.
If you only know how to play optimally for a 4000 jackpot and always play that way then the pot has to reach 4921 before the game is expected to pay out 100%.
And if you're using the auto mode then it probably has to be even higher than that, since auto mode doesn't even play optimally when the pot is 4000.
1) I'll get my hard core video poker associates to take a look at this and tell me:
1a) when it's +EV to play for the progressive jackpot
and
1b) if auto-play is making the right holds and which ones, if any, are wrong. I'm pretty sure I can find some differences between the holds I saw it make and wizard of odds strategy for 9/6 jacks or better.
will run some trials in a moment and try to find an example
Hey guys -- just chiming in here.
Basically everything you guys have said is correct:
1. 4888 is the breakeven progressive jackpot, IF and only if you're playing optimally.
2. The autoplay bot does NOT play optimally, though according to Wizard of Odds, it plays very well -- 99.46%.
2.a. I don't think we're going to improve the autoplay algorithm because we plan on opening up the api for other players to write more autoplay bots. Plus, if we wrote the most optimal strategy taking into account progressive jackpot sizes, that would take all the fun out of our site:)
3. Jacks or Better does offer the highest EV for the player. We tried to pick paytables that were close enough to JoB, but we wanted JoB to be the main focus.
4. Congrats to whoever just landed the 4500 RF jackpot.
5. We've got some pretty big things coming up for everyone...stay tuned:)
I heart you very much.

2) progressive jackpots and APIs to allow ppl to write their own strategy for autoplay is an absolute amazing stroke of genius. Keep rolling on this project, i love it and will keep giving you ups. Not just because I hit a 4-btc royal. I was making vids for autoplay long before that
