Super Times Pay Five Play Poker Slot by IGT

This is video poker, not a slot. The cabinet drops you onto a hub of seven purple FIVE PLAY buttons sitting under a red carved Super Times Pay Poker wordmark, and the entire game is a choice between Jacks Or Better (97.57%), Bonus Poker (97.14%), Bonus Poker Deluxe (97.67%), Double Bonus Poker (96.64%), Double Double Bonus Poker (97.06%), Deuces Wild Poker (97.03%) or Joker Poker (97.46%). Pick one, and the standard hold-and-draw loop begins inside the Five Play format.

The Five Play mechanic is the structural piece. One deal of five cards, you mark which to hold with the 1-5 keys or by clicking each card, then DRAW. The held cards seed five hands simultaneously. Whatever you didn't hold gets replaced independently in each of the five rows, so the same starting pair of aces can become five different finished hands ranging from a busted two-pair to a quad. Hand rankings resolve per row against the variant's paytable, and the totals add up. Thirty coins per round when the Bonus Bet is on, twenty-five without it. Chip values run $0.01 to $30, so a maxed-out round costs $750.

Super Times Pay is the modern overlay on what is otherwise a classic IGT WagerWorks cabinet. Switch the Bonus Bet on (the extra coin per hand is the price of admission) and roughly one deal in fifteen triggers a random multiplier of 2x through 10x applied to the total win across all five hands. The average when it does fire is about 4.05x. Off the Bonus Bet, the multiplier is dormant and the game is just clean Five Play video poker against the standard paytable.

The Five Play hand count is the middle setting of the Super Times Pay family. Triple Play runs three hands, Ten Play runs ten, and all three siblings are mathematically identical multi-hand wrappers around the same seven variants. The hub even color-codes the choice: purple buttons here, red for Triple Play, blue for Ten Play. Five hands is the variance compromise. More action and rarer cold streaks than Triple, but without the bankroll velocity of dropping thirty coins per deal that Ten Play demands. The right pick depends on what hand count you want your single-deal decision to leverage, and whether you're willing to pay the extra five coins for a shot at the multiplier roughly twice per ten minutes of play.
