In both bonus deuces and double bonus deuces holding 222A not only gives
you a shot at 2222A but also 222AA which is either 400 or 800. In DDB
holding AAA2 if you end up with AAA22 it is only 45 (or 50). The five aces
is so strong in bonus deuces that you hold 22A over 22 and in double bonus
deuces you hold 22A and 2A (some penalty situations related to 3RF have
penalty considerations.)

Thanks Devin!
That was a mistake on my part. I didn't mean the 5-of-a-kind cards
in Case 1. I believe I have the correct example in Case 2 so if you
know why the kicker in Bonus Deuces Wild is a recommended Hold and
the kicker in DDB is not (both going for 2,000 credits), can you tell
us why?--- In vpFREE@yahoogroups.com, Devin Braun <dbraun4@y...> wrote:
