I have played this game with basic FPDW strategy. There has to be some
adjustsments to playing the wild 7's version. Anyone have any ideas?

Sevens Wild instead of Twos costs about 1.9% so something is going on.
Winpoker really can't help us since it can't define a wild card game...just
redefine a given one with two wild.

With Sevens Wild there are going to be alot less possible natural staights
and straight-flushes. That wildcard stuck right in the middle goofs them up.
This has to be where we lose the ER.

But it appears the play decision rules should be about the same for a given
hand. Like two suited connected cards and a wild card without wildcard
interferance is a play. Trouble is if the wildcard is a seven there is alot more
instances of interferance.

Another rule is inside straights without wild card interferance could be a
play. That seven for a wild card once again ruins alot more draws.

I hope you are playing Sevns Wild sitting a comfy barstool and enjoying the
unique and tasty drafts offered.

The free program, ViPoker, has Sevens wild in the basic games provided.
It can also handle One Eyed Jacks and you can configure almost any other
game relatively easily.

A wild card in the middle of the deck is the worst place to put it.
As you mentioned, the straights and straight flush hits will be less.
With the SF and straights contributing about 15% of the return on
FPDW, this has to be the area where the 1.9% loss is found.

Now I am still not sure where the adjustments to play could possibly
be. The two hands you mention most likely are the same hold on both
games. Is it possible that the strategy is the same for both games,
although the return is not the same? This might make a good article
subject for the pro players/writers. Linda or Dancer, are you
listening?

I tried the ViPoker, but I could not figure out the default paytable,
nor how to change it. Besides, I am not sure how to proceed to find
differences in hold strategy from FPDW and Wild 7's.

7 is suppose to be a lucky number, so I am sure this is why they have
such a game in the VP mix. For those that are geared to the luck
factor, 7-7-07 is coming up very soon. Hitting a set of 7's on wild
7's on 7-7-07 sounds likely to me. Besides that, 7-7 is my Birthday!
I am a lucky guy.

What's the issue with WinPoker? My copy (version 6.0.5) has the Wild
Sevens game built in - near the bottom of the Games menu listing -
i.e., no need to redefine anything.
