Is it better to always go for the four deuces or keep the five of a
kind?

Depends on the game.

NSUD you always keep the five-of-a-kind
FPDW you keep five 10's or higher (less chance for a wild Royal I think) and
throw away lower ones.

I am always willing to stand corrected, however :slight_smile:
