When the random bonus is triggered (frequency varies by game type, but around every other hand on average) 1 tp 3 WILD cards are added to the deck. From there, the game behaves like any other 3/5/10 game, but with added wild cards.

These act like any other card (can be held or discarded, and are available on the deal and draw) but are wild.

Get one in the bottom hand? HOLD it.

Then on every draw, there will be 1 to 3 wild cards available in the deck. They are inserted randomly into the deck so they may come up or not on the draw, like any other card, similar to a Joker being in the deck (or up to 3 jokers).

You of course won't see the Wild cards every time since they are just 1,2, or 3 additional cards in the deck. But the end result is many more royals and quads in this game (with natural payouts, not reduced wild payouts), so I think a lot of players will enjoy it.

I get holding a wild card on the bottom hand but what do you do when the "wild card" starts spinning and throws wild cards not on the bottom row? Guess which cards are wild and hope you're right?

Wild cards are added to the deck. So if you earn 3 wild cards, you are playing with a 55 card deck on each hand, 3 of them being Wilds. You will know the Wilds when you see them. :)

Here is an example where two of the hands drew a wild card:

And a close-up of a royal flush with one Wild drawn (which pays the same as a natural Royal Flush).

Greetings. I have a question for Webman about the deuces wild version of this new game. The other day on deuces wild 10 play, I held 2 high hearts (king, queen of hearts I believe) while 3 wild cards were activated. I caught the 3 wilds on one of the hands, but was awarded credits as if it was royal with deuces at 125 credits only. I thought that the wild cards would be treated as counting towards a natural royal. Am I mistaken on this? Cheers.
