    Default Video Poker Technique Question

    So I'm using the hand list and it's going OK (tbh, I lost £50 then got a £50 bonus, but that's not the point). Obviously you should hold the strongest hand you have, but if you have a low pair and a high card should you hold the high card too, to increase the chances of a second pair? To be more technical, if you can hold two hands on the chart, should you?

    Cheers,
    Quincel

    Yes, and if you have a four of kind you should fold them to increase your chances to get a royal flush.

    Four of a Kind is higher than Replace all cards on the table, are you sure?

    Never. The chart on this site works as it is.

    Sarcasm may be hard to understand sometimes. Think that you have a pair and you lock that and then you are dealt one card. This situation is the same that you lock one pair and one a card BUT you have weakened your chances to get three of a kind or four of a kind--> you lose more money.
