Double Bonus Deuces Wild

Deuces Wild is a popular video poker variation that is played online and uses a standard deck of 52 cards. In this video poker variant, deuces (2s) are wild, and they substitute any other card on the deck to form a winning hand. To compensate for this, Bonus Deuces Wild Video Poker has a 3 of a Kind as its lowing paying hand. Straights, Flushes, Full Houses, 4 of a Kind, Straight Flushes, five 6s to Kings, five 3s, 4s or 5s, five Aces, a Wild Royal Flush, 4 Deuces, 4 Deuces with an Ace, and a Royal Flush are all paying hands. Deuces Wild Bonus Poker is also sometimes called Bonus Deuces Wild. Like many video poker variations, it can be thought of as a bit of a hybrid. Bonus Poker is normally considered a variation of Jacks or Better with bonus payouts for various 4 of a kind hands.

Bonus Deuces Wild is almost identical to the traditional Deuces Wild game, which can be found here. You can follow the general strategy for deuces wild on this game. The only difference is with the payouts for a couple of the winning hands.

In Bonus Deuces Wild, the 5 of a Kind is the bonus hand. You will receive an 80x payout for receiving 5 Aces; there is a 40x payout for receiving 5 of a Kind in 3's, 4's or 5's. The remaining 5 of a Kinds are all the regular payout of 20x.

In addition to that, there are bonuses for receiving all four Deuces with an Ace kicker. That will pay out 400x instead of 200x without the Ace. Also, the Natural Royal Flush bonus is received no matter how many coins you choose to play.

As with any other video poker game, in order to receive these bonuses, the game has to lower some of the payouts. In the case of Bonus Deuces Wild, the Straight payout is lowered to 1x, which is even money. This means you will only receive the money you wagered if you get a 3 of a Kind or a Straight. You will need to receive a Flush or better to actually win money on your bet.

If you decide to play this side game, there will be 5 new cards that will be dealt. The first card will be flipped over. You will have to pick one of the four remaining cards. The object is to pick a higher ranked card than the one that is shown. This game works really well if the card flipped is a 2, 3, 4, or 5; not so well is the card is a Jack, Queen, King or Ace. You won't always have the option of winning in this game.
