Deuces Wild is a video poker game played with a standard 52-card deck. The main feature of the game is deuces (2s) which stand for wild cards. Due to this fact the lowest winning combination is 3 of a kind. A pair and two pair hands don’t pay out. With the help of wild cards you will hit Full Houses and Flushes more often. Deuces Wild makes it possible to have Five of a Kind. In the case of Four of a Kind, which are deuces you get paid more that for Five of a kind. Deuces Wild Video Poker Tips Deuce is the only single card you can hold. Get rid of a single card, which is an ace or any other high card. Never discard a deuce. It can and will be done if you're not paying attention. In the case of a shot at a natural royal you can do it. You will never hold only one other card with a single deuce. Again, don't think that holding a high card with a deuce adds any value; it only hurts. Never hold two pair. You must discard one pair (it doesn't matter which) and draw three. As a rule, you don't want to play a machine that has less than a five-for-one payout on four of a kind. Computer Jackpot Poker Full House.
