I just saw the Wizard's page on 3-Way Action video poker.
But I recently learned about the game through an article from 2001.
It's also on the Arcade History site, though they say it's only 9 years old. (For grammar enthusiasts, the hyphen on the glass artwork is oddly between Way and Action instead of between 3 and Way.)
Did the game fail to catch on, and they're trotting it out again 18 years later?? Seems like fun—I'd like to try it!

In video poker, I discard one card to get aces full over deuces.
In a scenario where I can draw two more cards, what is the chance I draw an ace and a deuce?
Is it (1/46)*(2/45) = .021*.044 = .0009 or roughly 1 in 10,000?
This came up in playing 3 Way-Action video poker, which is a fun variant of standard video poker. It might still be at the Gold Coast.

The Wizard’s page about the game shows the WMS Gaming version of the game, but apparently the IGT version is still out in the wild. Maybe the rights to the game were sold?

I didn't see them while I was there—but then, I wasn't looking for them.
So could someone confirm my math to pull an ace and deuce: (1/46)*(2/45) = .021*.044 = .0009 or roughly 1 in 10,000?
The jackpot is getting four aces and three 2s, 3s, or 4s.gordonm888Poker

If you drew an Ace and a Deuce to make a full house AAA-22, then there were two aces and three deuces left in the deck, I would say the odds of drawing an Ace and a Deuce to make the full house were:
2*(2/47)*(3/46) =0.00555 or about 1/180.
So many better men, a few of them friends, are dead. And a thousand thousand slimy things live on, and so do I.

Three Way Action PokerI think that game basically failed to catch on. Nevertheless, I still see them once in a while. I think the Gold Coast has several. That game was a tough one to analyze.
It's not whether you win or lose; it's whether or not you had a good bet.

Hm. With AAA-22, there's only one ace and 2 deuces left, and one other card was discarded so only 46 cards left in the deck.
So that would make it 2*(1/46)*(2/45) = .0019?
Apologies for my limited mathematical ken, but why do you multiply that by 2?

There used to be. Unfortunately they got rid of a bunch and are down to just 3.
(I had my best hit ever on one of those El Cortez machines when I got 4 aces and 3 fours: 120,000 nickels on a $4.50 bet.)
Be aware that the paytable there, while good, is not the paytable that the strategy on the Wizard’s page was generated for (in fact the paytable isn’t even listed on the page), and so optimal play requires strategy differences on many common hands.

Are you’re asking why there is a 2 at the start of the last equation? It is because the cards could come in either order.AxelWolf

I think that game basically failed to catch on.

from my observation, I noticed a lot of Asian people like to play those machines. I think the Palms used to have quite a few of them as well. I don't know if they still do or not.
I remember Double Down stud used to be really popular back in the day.
