Deuces Wild uses a standard 52-card deck with all four deuces (2s) acting as wild cards. Three of a kind becomes the lowest card combination for payout. So you will get nothing for making any single or 2 pair hands. You're going to be hitting Full Houses and Flushes more often because of the wild cards. You can 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 The only single card you must always hold is a deuce. Throw away a single ace or any high card. Don’t think that they will help you in forming a good hand. It will not help you as there is no such a winning hand as a high card. Never throw away a deuce! In the case of a shot at a natural royal you can do it. Never keep any other card you consider to be high in combination with a 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. Internet Chinese Poker Tips.
