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. Three of a kind becomes the lowest card combination for payout. A pair and two pair hands don’t pay out. You're going to be hitting Full Houses and Flushes more often because of the wild cards. Deuces Wild makes it possible to have Five of a Kind. Four of a Kind can pay more than Five of a Kind if they are Deuces. Deuces Wild Video Poker Tips The only single card you hold is a deuce. Get rid of a single card, which is an ace or any other high card. There is no such thing as a high card in Deuces Wild. Discarding a deuce is forbidden! Only if there is a chance of receiving a natural royal you can do it. Never keep any other card you consider to be high in combination with a deuce. Holding any high card with a deuce will also make no good. Two Pair is not worth holding either. 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. Multi-Hand American Poker Tips.
