How to unlock the Foursome achievement in RAGE - Definitive Guide
To unlock this achievement, you will have to play on the slot machines, which you can find in the Jackpot area after you gave Sarah the plans of Firestone. There is no easy way to obtain this achievement and it's all luck so it could be faster for one person than another. Allow me to explain me my tactics, it helped me gain this achievement rather quick:
After the first dealing, check what cards you have. If you got 2 of the same kind (example 2 sixes), hold them by marking them and pressing X. If you got 3 of the same kind (example 3 sixes); hold them as well since you only need one more. If you got 2 pair, hold all four cards and deal again. If one of the numbers pop up (example: 2 fives and 3 sixes), unhold the 2 fives and deal again and see if you get a card of the same kind (in this example, another six). If you don't get another six, a 'three of a kind' will always give you 3 times the money you have betted (example: if you betted $5, you will earn $15).
This way, you will still earn money (you will loose some since the slot machine can be kinda tricky) and luckily, you'll get your achievement as fast as I did (I did around 20 tries betting $15).
Have a good day!

Edit: It is not required to get 4 aces. I unlocked my achievement with 4 Jacks (or should I say mutants )
As for the jackpot one, go up to one of the Video poker machines and press A to play. The trick here is to HOLD (X) the ace when it pops up, however since you get 3 turns before it finishes, you may have to try a few times before it pops up.
EDIT: You have to wait until finishing the original campaign in order for Jackpots to open up thank you MCoreBE for pointing this out.
EDIT: You have to finish the first two missions in order to go into Jackpots. Again thank you, MCoreBE for pointing that out.

The Video Poker machine is located inside Jackpots. There are 4 machines to choose from inside, however they are all the same. This plays exactly like poker, and to achieve 4 of a kind is going to take a persistent, lucky hand. You'll need to obtain 4 of the same cards within 3 deals. Attempt to hold higher value cards, (Jack, Queen, King Ace) since they're easier to spot. However, if you manage more than one card on your first deal, hold those. There is no real strategy here, but as long as you keep at it, you'll get lucky.
Note: You have to complete the first two missions in this DLC until you can get access to the minigames. Your best off saving before as well so you don't lose all your money.
At the entrance/exit to Wellsprings go straight forwards and you will see a sign saying 'Jackpot ->'. Follow that arrow down the alley to reach the mini-games. On your left as you come in are some Poker arcade machines, go up to one and press to play. To get the this trophy you need a 4 of a kind, that means 4 Jacks or 4 Queens etc.
This is again based on luck but what you want to do is as soon as you start look at your cards, if there isn't a pair just keep pressing to go through the 3 rounds. If there is a pair or more you want to press on them to 'Hold'. This will add the other cards in your hand to the deck and give you some more but keep the cards your holding. All you have to hope for now is you get the remaining cards to get the 4 of a kind. This all based on luck but the higher the card number, the more chance it has of coming up.
