Re: DW Correct Hold
OMT, I had the same issues. They keep wanting us to go for the straight flush when it's just not worth it. I'd rather take my chances and hold just the deuce. Their inside straight analysis with you mirrors their two pair analysis with me. Their arbitrary choice is just as good as ours. It's just so silly. Â
if I was seriously trying for the achievement (I'm not), I would be pretty darned annoyed to be denied it when my answers were 100% correct.
It should be fixed.

I did eventually get a DW perfect ten, but one achievement must be the limit. I was not credited since I already aced JOB, I believe.

That's right - you get the achievement only once.

I was curious to try the Test Your Skills challenge for DW, it was quite difficult for me since I never played on such a paytable structure, the psuedo full pay deuces wild? I eventually guessed correctly all 10 without looking at the strategy.
The DDB one is quite challenging despite that I was able to get all 10 multiple times.

I suppose DDB would be a blast. It's the only way I could actually afford to play the game!

Would you have guessed the deuce with a suited four and five correctly?

Each time the test yields different sets of hands. I have the achievement from Jacks Or Better in the past, but never looked at Deuces Wild until now. I did miss one or two and have retaken the test probably 6 times.
I have played NSU Deuces, Airport Deuces, and 20-12-10 Fooler Deuces to make certain educated guesses.
I know when the straight flush pays 10, you hold the deuce and drop the 4-5 suited with a straight and a flush or 2 straight penalties. When the straight flush pays 9, you hold the deuce and drop the 4-5 suited for a 3,6,7 straight penalty or a single flush penalty.
