                 Louisiana Double Video Poker | 
               
             
             
            Louisiana Double video poker does resemble Jacks or Better video 
            poker very closely. There is only one crucial difference, and that 
            is the addition of a special 53rd Double Card to the deck. The Double 
            Card is *not* a wild card, meaning it can *not* be used to substitute 
            for any other card in the deck. But if your hand contains a winning 
            combination found in the payout table, *plus* the Double Card, the 
            payouts for that hand are doubled automatically. This is of course 
            only possible for winning combinations consisting of four or less 
            cards, i.e. a Four of a Kind, a Three of a Kind, Two Pairs and Jacks 
            or Better. 
            
            Louisiana Double video poker payout table
            Microgaming casinos use the 
            payout table that is presented here. When we compare this payout table 
            to the one used with full pay Jacks or Better, we find lower payouts 
            for a Royal Flush and a Three of a Kind, and higher payouts for a 
            Straight Flush and a Four of a Kind. The payouts for four of the hands 
            listed can be doubled if you also have the special Double Card in 
            your hand. These hands are Four of a Kind, Three of a Kind, Two Pairs 
            and Jacks or Better. Remember to always bet max coins as a 5 coin 
            Royal Flush pays proportionally more than a Royal Flush with only 
            1 to 4 coins.
