Deuces Wild Full Pay Video Poker

These casino games offer the player superb value for money, on condition they provide a full pay schedule as indicated below. If you follow the strategy shown, a house edge does not exist! Instead you the player will hold a long-term edge over the game of 0.7 percent.

The industry standard payout schedule looks something like this:

Deuces Wild (Full Pay)

Notice that natural payouts (those not involving wild cards) pay by far the biggest prizes. The natural Royal Flush (excluding a wild 2) still pays 250 coins, and 4,000 for maximum credits played. Once again, this means that you must play the full five coins for each spin, so that you can benefit from this massively increased jackpot. Four Deuces pays the second jackpot, but without a bonus pay for maximum coins.

Royal Flush and Four-of-a-Kind involving at least one wild card pays relatively low prizes since you will see these hands quite often. Usually rare hands such as Straight Flushes, Four-of-Kind and Full House become regular occurrences with the addition of four wild cards into the pack.

Deuces Wild with Progressive Jackpot

Deuces Wild can also be found with a progressive jackpot and, unless you catch the casino game just after the progressive has been reset (following a jackpot win), you will find that these games can offer you a great deal. Normally the games are reset to the standard 4,000 coins after a jackpot and, at that point the house holds an edge over the player of a little higher than 1 percent.

As usual with progressives, the key to deciding whether or not to invest your money in these games will be the size of the progressive jackpot. Remember that the progressive is nearly always displayed as a cash total and not as a coin value.

This is the payout schedule for a Full Pay game with a progressive jackpot:

Deuces Wild with Progressive Jackpot (Full Pay)

Notice that although the payout for Four-of-a-Kind has dropped from five coins to four coins, the payouts for Full House have increased from three to four, and two to three coins respectively.

A progressive jackpot usually starts at 4,000 coins. At this level, the game is taking 1.1 percent from the player, and the game is only a reasonable proposition. This is the level at which the progressive will be reset following a Royal Flush being hit. When a progressive reaches 6,400 coins, the game is taking no percentage from the player and you are playing an even-money game.

When a progressive is higher than 6,500 coins, you are playing the game with a positive expectation. In other words you have the edge against the house.

Remember that even if you find a really profitable Deuces Wild casino game you may not always win. Unless you hit a natural Four Deuces or a natural Royal Flush, the payout schedule is not generous. You will, however, see a lot more premium hands than you would usually see playing Video Poker with no wild cards, or just one.
