Learning a game without available software is very frustrating. Another
discrepancy between Bob Dancer's and Wizard of Odds' strategy charts:
lone Ace versus suited A24, A25, and A35
Wizard says hold the lone Ace. Bob says hold the three to a straight
flush. I know Aces are valuable in Quick Quads, but are they that
valuable? Anyone know which is correct or if it depends on straight and
flush penalty cards?

Any differences between the two strategies have to be practically a wash - a difference of a penny or two. I say pick one of the strategies and be consistent with whichever one you choose.

It's also possible that the EV of both holds is *exactly* the same. Some
games have two holds that are dissimilar but yield the same return in the
long run. One Eyed Jacks is an example of a game with tons of these.

Interesting. So if I was in a Bob Dancer class and he asked me why, the answer would be because these are the only cards that interfer with the TJQKA straight AND have high pair potential?

I would say that's a good explanation of the penalty cards.
