Video Poker Can Someone explain this?

Hit a full house on a $5 dollar bet. And hit the match on the king of diamonds. Why did this pay 5k????

 

Congratulations on hitting a full house on a $5 bet and matching the King of Diamonds! That's a great win.

Regarding your question about the payout, it's difficult to provide a precise answer without more information about the game you were playing and its specific rules. However, in many casino games, hitting a full house and matching a certain card or combination can trigger a bonus payout or jackpot, which can result in a larger-than-expected win.

It's possible that the $5,000 payout you received was a combination of your original bet, the payout for the full house, and any additional bonuses or jackpots that were triggered by your matching the King of Diamonds. Again, this would depend on the specific rules and payout structure of the game you were playing.

If you would like more information about the game you were playing or the specific payout structure, we recommend reaching out to the casino's customer support team. They should be able to provide you with a more detailed explanation of how the payout was calculated.
