Older Pickem Poker pages often used "full-pay" as shorthand for a specific mid-table payout pattern. For RTG Pick Em Poker, it is safer to treat every paytable as operator-specific unless you have current in-game proof. This page gives you the checklist to use before real-money play.
What to verify first
| Check | What you want to confirm |
|---|---|
| Game title | The lobby and game screen identify RTG Pick Em Poker or Pick Em Poker, not a different video poker title. |
| Minimum paying hand | Nines or Better in the RTG version covered on this site. |
| Max coins | 5 coins. |
| Royal Flush at 5 coins | The RTG version should be described as 6,000 coins/credits. |
| Mid-table lines | Review Full House, Flush, Straight, Straight Flush, and the rest of the table as paytable-specific values. |
| Bonus terms | Confirm video poker and Pick Em Poker are allowed and check wagering contribution. |
| Availability | Verify the game loads before depositing, because casino libraries can change. |
Why this replaces the old shortcut
Full House and Flush values are still worth checking, but they should not be presented as universal proof that every RTG table is identical. Operators can configure game libraries and paytables, and old screenshots or forum posts may be stale.
When exact RTP is not backed by current verified data, describe a strong table as being in the upper-90% range when played well. Tie any exact RTP percentage to the specific paytable that produced it.
Quick pre-deposit checklist
- Confirm the game is RTG Pick Em Poker.
- Confirm Nines or Better is the minimum paying hand.
- Confirm max coins is 5.
- Confirm the max-coin Royal Flush value shown in the game.
- Review the active paytable line by line.
- Confirm bonus terms allow video poker/Pick Em Poker play.
