Deuces Wild Poker

[grammie]

Recently, I asked Webman why the Deuces Wild game scores were always manipulated when the straight poker remained the same through out all the games. He said because Deuces Wilds have 4 wild cards. So that means that it's EASIER to get the larger hands... which those of us who play nothing but Deuces know that's not true. I had a score of 195 today on the monthly contest... really? I have a better advantage because I have 4 wild cards? I don't think so, Scooter. This is not fun and certainly not fair. Those of us that love this game have to work harder to gain a decent score. My scores on this contest for the past several months have not held my interest at all.   

On the "X" games, if you draw into a straight flush (rare), the next hand is multiplied by 12x, but if you draw a Royal Flush with wilds (also rare), the next hand is multiplied by 2x... my argument is this is also a Straight Flush and should be treated as such with a follow up of 12x. Same with 5 OAK... your following hand is only multiplied by 2x. This sucks because of you think you have an advantage of getting 5 OAK in the second hand?? You are dreaming. Believe me when I say lightning does not strike the same place twice in Deuces Wild, I mean it. I'm aggravated and frustrated over this. I mean, 195 today... really??? That's the suckiest score I have ever had in all the years I've played here, since 2008. Grammie

I don't remember you asking me this question or me answering it. Was it here on the forum?

I'm sorry for the low score, but I wouldn't draw any conclusions based on a single 100 hand session over a 9 year period. As you said, it was the worst... which stinks... but it's also very rare to score that low.

Like I said, I don't recall answering this question for you in the past and I will need to understand it better before I can give a good answer. Explain what you mean by "game scores were always manipulated" because we don't manipulate scores. Are you referring to pay tables?

By manipulated, I mean the Deuces Wild game hands are changed whereas the straight poker is usually the same scores... look at the different games and you'll see. A straight flush in Deuces Wild ranges from 45 points to 65 points...

I asked you about this not on the forum but under Tech help I believe a few months back. I just got so aggravated over that exceptionally low score. And this is how I've felt about more than just that one. I used to think that if I only needed 25 points to reach a score of 400, that I could do it on 10 hands or so, but not any more. It's at least a 20 hand try most of the time.

My whole point of this is, the hand scores should remain the same in every single game... no variations. Just because there are 4 wild cards the hand scores already cover that. To get your bet back, you have to have at least 3 OAK, not a pair as in straight poker. You don't need to make them lower because of multipliers.

And I still argue about the multipliers in the "X" games as on my original post. It's not fair.

Huh?

[onemoretry]

Double huh!

Can anyone make sense of this? Is this person actually stating that, for example, a royal flush containing a deuce (aka a wild royal) should pay the same as a natural one?

[Tedlark]

I think the person is trying to state that, in their opinion, a wild straight flush when playing Deuces Wild in DreamCard (45 credits at MAX coin, not single coin) should pay the same as playing Deuces Wild in like 5 or 10 play.

Maybe.....

I read it as she thinks 4OAK in Deuces should pay the same as in JOB, since you are already paying a huge penalty as Hi Pairs and Two pair hands are losers.
It does suck when you hit a natural 4OAK or straight flush and get paid squat.

I'd love to stumble upon a DW game in a casino that payed 4000 for a wild royal.

[Tedlark]

You and me both Paco, you and me both. Along with about a gazillion other people too.

Ummm, no I never said that. My argument is the fluctuation of the Deuces Wild hand scores. On the "X" games, if you hit a Royal with Deuces, your next hand is multiplied 2X... The Royal is a STRAIGHT FLUSH and should have the next hand multiplied by 12x just like a straight flush is.
