Here you are playing the classic Loose Deuces (25/15/10/5 paytable) — the strategy is very different from standard video poker because 2s are wild, and this game is extremely aggressive about chasing big hands.

Below is a clean, correct priority chart for optimal play at ~99.07% RTP. Always read top → bottom and take the first match.

🎯 Loose Deuces Optimal Strategy (Max Coins)

• 3 to Straight Flush (no gaps, no deuce)
• 2 to Royal Flush
• 1 Deuce alone

---

🔴 6. Weak holds

• High pair (JJ+)
• 3 to Straight Flush (1 gap)
• Low pair

---

⚫ 7. Trash

• Discard everything

---

⚠️ Critical differences (this is where people mess up)

• Deuces override almost everything → even break strong hands sometimes
• You chase royals WAY more aggressively than in Jacks or Better
• Pairs are weak in this game
• A single deuce is very valuable — often better than made hands

💡 Example (from my screenshot)

You had:

• 3 Deuces + 2 random cards

👉 Correct play: HOLD ALL 3 DEUCES ONLY
→ You’re aiming for:

• 4 Deuces (huge payout)
• Wild Royal
• 5 of a Kind

🧠 Reality check

Even small mistakes in this game:

• Drop RTP from 99.07% → ~96–97%
• Biggest leaks:
  • Holding pairs over deuce draws
  • Not chasing royals enough
  • Keeping made straights/flushes when you shouldn’t
