Tens Or Better Video Poker
Tens or Better video poker is almost the same game as Jacks or Better. The only difference is that the lowest hand in the payout table is a pair of Jacks in Jacks or Better, and a pair of Tens in Tens or Better video poker. So you have more chance of receiving a hand that pays out in Tens or Better. This doesn't necessarily mean Tens or Better is a 'better' game than Jacks or Better in terms of average expected returns, because the payouts for a Full House have been decreased slightly. In fact the Tens or Better variant discussed here is a 'better' game than short pay Jacks or Better, but a 'worse' game than full pay Jacks or Better. It all depends on the payout tables used.
