I didn't see anything about a $500 jackpot... just being ahead $500 i.e., having a $500 profit.

But with a max bet of $2 (I guess that rules out 50-cent video poker) you'd have to win some bigger pays.

If I had to show a $500 profit and I was playing 8/5 Bonus or even 9/6 Jacks $25 video poker and I had a $5,000 bankroll I think I would stand a very good chance of winning this bet.
