Been playing Dueces and I cannot believe the number of deuces you get.Seems like a very high percentage of hands gives you a deuce in the 5 slot.Is it my imagination?I bet if I were playing this same game in a casino, I'd hardly ever see a deuce!Ray

The Dream Card frequency on Deuces Wild is fairly high, and a deuce is quite often the best 5th card. So that's not surprising. You'd likely find similar results in the casino. That's one reason the bet amount is fairly high in this game.

So I've been wrong all these years thinking that all VP games are dealt the same?I mean it's a 52 card deck right? And it should deal 5 off the top of the deck, right?Then shuffle and repeat. How can card frequency be different?WTF???

When it is time for a Dream Card (59% of the time in Deuces Wild), the card selected is not random; it is the best possible card. That is the twist that occurs with Dream Card. Most of the time, the best possible card would be a wild card, which would be a deuce. A fair amount of the exceptions involve deals with 3 to 5 cards to a natural royal flush.Your intuition is correct in most other vp games.

Yes, that is the Bonus feature in Dream Card, similar to how Super Times Pay has a multiplier every so often that is not found in other video poker games.

Am I mistaken in thinking that the bonus entry scored was lowered to 2,000?
