Alright, jumping into this wild video poker debate! 
Gotta say, I’m vibing with Joker Wild this week—something about that cheeky joker card just spices things up! The extra wild card feels like a mini adrenaline shot every time it pops up, giving you those juicy chances to chase a royal flush or even a sneaky five-of-a-kind. 
Now, don’t get me wrong, Deuces Wild is still a banger. Those four deuces floating around can turn a trash hand into a monster payout—love the chaos! But here’s my take: Deuces is more forgiving if you’re grinding for smaller wins, while Joker Wild’s got that high-risk, high-reward energy.
I’ve been digging into paytables lately (nerd alert 
), and full-pay Joker Wild (7/5 machines) edges out slightly for me with a 100.65% return if you play tight. Deuces full-pay (9/5) is close, but I’m feeling the joker’s unpredictability right now.
Strategy-wise, with Joker Wild, I’m holding any joker like it’s my lifeline and always aiming for big hands—don’t sleep on going for four-of-a-kind over settling for a flush. For Deuces, I lean heavier on keeping pairs if no wilds show up early; those twos can save you later. Anyone else tweaking their plays based on the vibe of the machine?
What’s swinging it for you guys—Joker’s wild card swagger or Deuces’ four-of-a-kind dreams? Spill the tea!
