Downtown Deuces?

#1

Is the strategy for this game posted anywhere on the internet? I'm
heading to Vegas in a few weeks and would like to play this one at the
Vegas Club. Is the strategy close to DDW?

Thanks!

If you know FPDW strategy, you can use the chart below to capture most of
the return in this game. The chart only lists the deviations from FPDW. If
you don't see a particular hand listed, play it the same as you would in
FPDW.

The database states:
   
  (4) $10 MG uprights in high-limit area.

I thought these were MIA months ago...(?) The only $10 machines I've seen don't have JOB on them.

No. Play exactly the same as FPDW. At first glance one may think to play a
1 gap STFL draw, like 2-2-6-8s, as the STFL pays 20 more coins than FPDW,
however, remember that the value of the deuces is doubled at $500, making
the hold of two bare deuces worth much more. Unfortunately one of the
downsides to this game is that the four ducks contribute a whopping 8% of
the return of this game, so without them, the return is under 93%.
