Quick Quads Poker™ If you’ve ever played video poker it’s likely you’ve gotten 3-of-a-kind where the 4th and 5th card add up to the rank of the other three. Like the rest of us, you probably thought to yourself, “That could have been a 4-of-a-kind!” Well now, with the new Quick Quads Poker™ game, IT IS. This game is fast-paced with. Quick Quads is available in most of the popular video poker game versions such as Jacks or Better, Bonus Poker, Double Bonus, Triple Bonus, Double-Double Bonus, Triple Double Bonus, and Triple Bonus Poker Plus. Initially, Quick Quads was only available in a multiline format of three or five lines. Casino Articles; The Basics of Quick Quads Video Poker By: Joan Peppin, Thursday August 13th 2015 0 Comments Email Print. The last big innovation in video poker took place when Microgaming launched the Level Up series and some other online casino software providers came up with similar versions.
Just like standard video poker, the player is dealt 5 cards. To make quads, you must have 3 of a kind and the remaining 2 cards must add up to total the same value as 1 of the 3 like cards. For example, if a player has a 7 of hearts, a 7 of spades and a 7 of clubs, in order to win, the player must get 2 cards that total 7 such as a 5 (of any suit) and a 2 (of any suit).
As we mentioned earlier, the ace is low when used in a quad and is valued as 1 point. The rules do not allow a player to make quads aces. The player does have the choice of keeping a 3 of a kind or even a natural 4 of a kind as those will still pay out just like in a standard video poker game.
The best possible Quick Quads Poker hand is 3 10s, a 9 and an ace (all of any suit). The list below is the shows how each quads hand ranks:
10 10 10 8 2
10 10 10 6 4
9 9 9 8 A
9 9 9 6 3
8 8 8 7 A
8 8 8 5 3
7 7 7 6 A
7 7 7 4 3
6 6 6 4 2
5 5 5 4 A
4 4 4 3 A
3 3 3 2 A
But this is just in the case of building quads, and payouts favor 2, 3 and 4 ranks quads as there are fewer combinations to make these quads.
As for the rest of the game play, it follows regular poker. The game still contains flushes, straights, full houses and pairs. We have ranked the hands below for your convenience:
Straight Flush
5 cards in consecutive order all of the same suit. For example 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 all of spades.
4 of a Kind
4 cards all of the same rank. In a 52 card deck, it will have one of each suit.
Full House
2 cards of matching rank along with 3 matching cards of a different match rank. For example 2 7s and 3 8s.
Straight
5 cards in consecutive order with different suits.
2 Pair
A set of 2 cards of matching rank along with a second set of 2 cards with a different matching rank. For example 2 6s and 2 5s.
Another aspect of the game is that there are different variations of Quick Quads. Variations include Jacks or Better, Bonus Poker, Double Bonus, Triple Bonus Plus. Each has some minor differences in the way the game is played. Some simply add a new rule or enhancement, for instance, Jacks or Better would require a minimum of a pair of jacks to win. Games with bonuses require certain hands to pay out higher bonuses.

The strategy maker for triple double bonus doesn't show 2 high cards in the basic strategy but then shows two to a straight: JK listed as an exception. Maybe it is not complete.

Thanks, is this considered one of the more difficult games to remember? Is there a simple strategy anywhere?
It's certainly more difficult than Jacks or Better.
The strategy linked to is complete. You can manually consolidate it into a simpler strategy using whatever notation you're comfortable with. If you follow only the basic strategy (and ignore the exceptions) then you're playing a game that returns 99.5761% (with the full-pay 9/7 paytable). Throw in the exceptions and you'll gain another 0.0017%. You're on your own for identifying the conditions which make each exception apply.

Versus most games yes, this one is more difficult. And nope, no simple strategy made. For most players, it's just better to play 9/6 JoB. Any game where the flush payout is 7 for 1 or higher is more difficult. Is there is a 9/7 TDB in your area even?

I wouldn't touch anything lower than 9/7 either.
