About Deuces Wild Video Poker
Deuces Wild is an online video poker machine from Amaya Gaming. Amaya has a good reputation in this industry, as well as in the land gambling industry, and this is a good example of the kind of software they deliver. As the name of the gam suggests – deuces – the “2” numbered card is wild, which enables players to line up even more winning combinations. The highest pay-out is 4000 credits which win can be landed on a maximum bet with a Royal Flush hand
Special Features
A deck of fifty-two cards has been dropped into a wild jungle type backdrop, decorated with tropical green leaves and “2’s” – these are the wild number. It is a visually pleasing yet simple game, which makes slot machine type sounds on every winning hand. We found this a little disconcerting in a game of video poker, but fortunately sound can be turned down or turned off completely.
Only one hand can be played at a time, and hand rankings have been slightly tweaked from traditional poker hands. The top winning combination is a Royal Flush, through Four Deuces, Wild Royal Flush, Five of a Kind, Straight Flush, Four of a Kind, Full House, Flush, Straight, and Three of a Kind. It is a very straight-forward version of video poker, and there is no gamble feature, so you cannot be tempted to gamble your winnings away.
This game is suitable for fans with any sized budget, with a coin betting range starting at 0.01, and one to five coins per wager. The coin range increases through 0.05, 0.25, 1.00, 2.00, and 5.00. A maximum wager of 5.00 over five coins will cost 100 credits. It is a very simple version to play, and can be played in demo mode first for beginner players, of fans of this game who just want to have fun without spending any money.
Bonus Features
As we made mention previously, there is no gamble feature in Deuces Wild. Although we have to admit that the deuce being wild is a bit of a bonus feature. It makes it much easier to win even though hand rankings are slightly tweaked to compensate for the easier winning properties. Still there are also some great casino bonuses available for online players who wish to play for real money, and these can certainly be considered to be bonus features.
