Part A – If the 5 Card Deal is a Dealt Winner. Note: Like in all video poker games, there will be a sound effect and a display in the middle if it is a winning hand
Tier 1 – If it is the even money payout “Jacks or Better” winner, move on to Part B
Tier 2 – Hold and draw without further hesitation
• Royal Flush – All 5 Cards
• Straight Flush – All 5 Cards
• Four of a Kind – Note: It does not matter if the 5th card is held for the Four of a Kind with Pair payout. Holding the 5th card, there is 3 out of 47 chances draw it will match up. The same odds as 69 out of 1081 chances for drawing a new pair of cards. 11 other ranks, 6 possible pairs each from 4 cards (4 choose 2). The thrown away 5th card has 3 cards of the same rank that produces 3 more pair possibilities (3 choose 2)
• Full House – All 5 Cards
• Three of a Kind – All 3 Cards
• Two Pairs – All 4 Cards unless there is 3 to Royal Flush
Tier 3 – 5 Card Flush Dealt
Check if there is 4 to the Royal Flush
• If Yes – See if the range of the cards are 8 thru King or 9 thru Ace, if not, drop the 5th
card breaking the Flush to go for the Royal Flush
• If No – Hold all 5 cards
Tier 4 – 5 Card Straight Dealt
Check if there is 4 to the Royal Flush
• If Yes – Break the straight and go for the Royal Flush
• If No – Hold all 5 cards
Part B – Observing the suits [♠ ♥ ♦ ♣] in the dealt hand. Note: I feel this is the best approach since the strategy is geared towards the 6 Card outcomes. There will always be at least 2 cards of the same suit in a 5-card deal.
Tier 1 – If 4 of the same suits is dealt
• Hold all 4 suited cards and draw
Tier 2 – If 3 of the same suits is dealt
• Step 1: Check if the 3 cards are within a Straight Flush range and if a Pair exists. If so also look for other cards that can form a 4 card outside straight within the gaps.
o Here is the following order of priority to hold the cards
1. 4 Card Straight with 3 Suited Cards (includes 3 to Royal Flush)
2. 3 to Royal Flush
3. 3 to Straight Flush with a High Card
4. High Pair (Jacks, Queens, Kings, Aces)
5. 3 to Straight Flush with No High Cards with 0 or 1 Gap
6. Low Pair (2s thru 10s)
7. 3 to Straight Flush with 2 Gaps (or 3 Gaps for 6 Card Straight Flush)
• Step 2: Hold the three suited cards
Tier 3 – If 2 of the same suits is dealt
• Step 1: See if there is 4 to inside straight, if yes, hold those 4 cards and draw
• Step 2: See if a Pair exists, hold the pair and draw
• Step 3: See if both cards are 9 through Ace (Royal Flush possibilities), if yes, hold them both and draw
• Step 4: See if there is a 3 card outside straight (ex 789), if yes, those 3 cards and draw
• Step 5: See if one of the cards is a high card, if yes, see if it is within range of 6 card straight with the other suited card. If yes to both, hold them both (J8, J7, J6, Q9, Q8, Q7, K9, K8, A2, A3, A4, A5, A6)
• Step 6: See if there are 0 to 1 gap in rank between the two cards (e.g 7 and 9). If so, see if there is a 3rd card that can form a 3 card no gap outside straight. If yes, hold the 3 card straight. If not, hold just the close 2 cards
• Step 7: See if there is a Jack, if yes, hold the Jack
• Step 8: See if there are 2 gaps and the lower card is at least a 3 (e.g. 4 and 7). If so hold them both
• Step 9: Hold the lowest high card, Queen then King then Ace
• Step 10: If the lower suited card is at least a 2 see if the other card is 3,4,5,6. If so hold them both
• Step 11: If there are 3 gaps in rank between the cards, hold them both
• Step 12: Hold 10 high or any highest ranked card
