For example, if the base win for a full house is 8 and the multiplier is 12, then the adjusted win is 2 × 8 + 12 - 1 = 27.

For each poker hand, determine: (adjusted win) = 2×(base win) + (multiplier) - 1.

Despite the fact that optimal strategy depends on the exact multipliers for the current hand, just a single strategy per game has near optimal performance.Ĭreating a strategy for a game not listed above is easy. Strategies are available from the following games. However, I did get a three of a kind in the top hand, which earns me a 4X multiplier for the top line of the next hand. In this hand, I lost the bottom hand, so that multiplier didn't help me. In the screen-shot below I had earned a 2X multiplier on the bottom hand from the previous hand. The player is not required to pay for the Ultimate X feature to take advantage of a previously earned multiplier. In Ultimate X mode any paying hand will both pay immediately and earn a multiplier for the following hand in the same position. If the player makes a max coin bet of 10 coins per line, then he will activate the Ultimate X feature. If the player declines the Ultimate X option, the game will play like conventional multi-play video poker. The game is an optional feature to 3-play, 5-play, and 10-play video poker. I have a separate page for the single-line version. This page addresses the multi-line version of Ultimate-X Poker.

The thrust of the game is that if the player doubles his bet, and gets any paying hand, then he will also win a multiplier, to be applied to the following hand.

Ultimate X is a video poker variation I noticed at the MGM Grand on February 15, 2009.
