The never-ending quest for Card Night minutiae has revealed some “interesting” observations about the frequencies of jackpot wins.
- The 2-3-4-5-6 straight flush has taken jackpot significantly more times than the other possible straight flushes. It’s hit a whopping five times, while four other combinations have never hit!
- Because we play so many hi-lo games, it makes sense that the higher frequencies for four-of-a-kind would be bunched up with the highest cards and the lowest cards, leaving low frequencies for the middle cards. And yet, four-of-a-kind 2’s has only hit once, and four-of-a-kind queens only twice. What’s up with that?!
