Today, I received an e-mail from a reader regarding casinos that offer 100.17% payback video poker machines.  He wanted to understand why casinos offer these machines, questioned the benefits of the casino of doing so and wondered if perhaps, the casinos essentially hope that Players don't play them.  I'm assuming that the game the reader was talking about was the Full-Pay Double Bonus machines.  This paytable can be found in numerous casinos here in Las Vegas, but I'm not sure if you'll find them anywhere else.  But, today's discussion is less about the specific game and more about video poker machines with paybacks over 100%.
