Game Review: Deuces Wild Video Poker

Deuces get the thumbs up in Deuces Wild. This popular Microgaming video poker game will drive you wild with excitement.

 
 


You Get 4 - Count 'Em - 4 Wild Cards in Deuces Wild

Deuces Wild is a classic online video poker game in which the four 2s are wild, giving you loads of opportunities to win. Deuces Wild is one of Microgaming's most popular video poker games and consistently tops the list of frequently played games on the Internet.

Like in any game of video poker, you have to play with at least minimal knowledge in order not to get creamed. This means knowing the ranking of the poker hands (and how they are comprised) and studying the payout chart for the game you are playing. Often when you play a game with wild cards, you won't win anything with pairs. Deuces Wild is no different in this respect - the lowest winning hand you can have is a 3 of a kind.

Play Flash Video Poker

The best way to familiarize yourself with Deuces Wild is to play in a flash casino. This means playing for free and playing instantly (without having to download the game). Flash games are easily accessed and you can practice all you want before putting down your first bet (if ever). You can get used to the buttons and to the payouts when you play for free - I highly recommend it.

Be Smart and Strategize in Order to Win at Deuces Wild

Wild cards make for a different game and with this change comes a change in strategy. Go online, find the strategy for Deuces Wild and use it while you're practicing. Either it will become second nature or not. If not, print out a clear strategy and keep it with you when you play. Don't stray from the strategy because doing so is just plain dumb. I've played with common sense and I've played with the strategy and, believe me, strategy rocks.

You may not win millions when you play Deuces Wild with the strategy, but you'll for sure be throwing your money away if you don't. For instance, you may be tempted to hold onto an ace or a king if you get them in your initial hand; in fact, the only one-off card you should hold onto is a deuce (which you should never discard). Also, you may think that being dealt 2 pairs is just great and you may discard only the fifth card in the hope of getting a full house. Wrong. If you're dealt 2 pairs, throw out one of them - that's another Deuces Wild strategy tip.

The Big Win in Deuces Wild

The big win in Deuces Wild is for a "natural" royal flush (that means an actual 10, J, Q, K and A with no deuces standing in for one or more of those cards). A natural royal flush pays 4,000 coins (if - a big IF - you've bet the maximum number of coins to begin with). Four deuces will also yield a big jackpot - 1,000 coins if you've bet the max. After that, the payouts are significantly lower, but you can still have lots of fun over a good many hours when you play Deuces Wild.
