Dream Card Deuces Wild Bonus Hold Strategy

Post by trumm »

Can someone please explain this to me like I'm 5 years old...

When playing Dream Card 10 play Deuces Wild Bonus video poker, when dealt 5D 3S 8C JH AH, why does the Pro training tutor tell you to hold the JH & AH when in another hand I was dealt 10H KS AS 6C 4H I was told the proper hold was to discard all cards for a fresh 5 card draw? I tried ChatGPT but it was useless.

Thank you!

My guess is that the 10H in the second hand is a straight penalty, reducing the value of the KS AS hold slightly, so that a complete redraw is a higher value option.
