This time, being a gambler is the smarter play by $43.93. In DW, keeping the straight flush is worth $45 and on average holding the KQJ10 is worth $98.93. In DB, keeping the straight flush is worth $250 and on average holding the KQJ10 is worth only $93.09. Gamblers throw the 9♠ away, say a prayer, and try for the royal. I’ve written about it before, and I’ll write about it again because it’s so expensive to get it wrong! Cowards keep all five cards. This is the classic “coward versus gambler” hand. I am going to assume you are playing for dollars, five coins at a time. If you look in the first column of each of the pay schedules below, you’ll see I’m getting “9-6” designation from the amount paid for the full house and flush, and the “15-9-4-4-3” designation from the amounts paid for 5-of-a-kinds down to the flush. I’m going to pick two games that return similar amounts, namely 9-6 Double Double Bonus game (98.98% when played well) and 15-9-4-4-3 of Deuces Wild (98.91%). So I can put a dollars-and-cents value on errors if you play a hand the wrong way, I’m going to need specific games to talk about. The games have little in common strategy-wise. Deuces Wild (DW) is the second-most popular. Double Double Bonus (DDB) is the most popular video poker game in the world.
