Isn't the 50 to 1 payoff on two red aces a 1326 to 1 shot?

His game was tried out before the poker/WPT explosion, and without the grade A license this one has. The difference is huge.

Yeah, but that is a better payoff than the pair of 2's, 220 to 1 odds and a 2:1 payout.

I can't believe people play these games. I need to open a casino.

I can't find the other thread where we discussed this, but basically, when you make the bonus bet you're not betting JUST on two red aces. It's like, you get 2-1 for a small pair, 4-1 for a medium pair, etc etc... on up to 50-1 for the two red aces. I'm not going to crunch all the numbers again but the house edge on the bonus bet actually came out to be pretty small, particularly compared to the ridiculous bonus bets offered in some other games.
