It is not often that you find an online casino game other than video slots on the big winners list at Spin Palace.

There were two separate hits on Double Double Bonus Poker of roughly the same amount. One was of €40,490 and the other of €40,262. Actually the origin of Double Double Bonus Poker is very interesting. The Bonus Poker online video poker variant was created by expanding the four of a kind hand ranking of Jacks or Better. This was again expanded to give Double Bonus Poker and yet again expanded to give Double Double Bonus Poker. In Double Double Bonus Poker there are five different four of a kind hand rankings. Four aces with the fifth card being any two, three or four pays 400 coins. Four aces with the fifth card being any other card pays 160 coins. Four twos, threes or fours with the fifth card being an ace, two, three or four pays 160 coins. Four twos, threes or fours with the fifth card being any other card pays 80 coins. Any other four of a kind hand pays 50 coins. In order to compensate for these high payouts, the payouts for some more frequently hand rankings have been reduced. Therefore Double Double Bonus Poker is a high variance online video poker variant.
