In this game, the goal is to make the best possible five-card poker hand using a standard 52-card deck with the addition of a wild card, which is the 2s in the deck. The presence of the wild card increases the chances of getting a winning hand, but it also changes the standard poker hand rankings, as now a 3 of a kind is worth less than a straight.

The gameplay of 2’s Wild is similar to other video poker games, where the player makes a bet and is dealt five cards. The player then chooses which cards to keep and which ones to discard, with the aim of getting a better hand in the second draw.

The paytable for 2’s Wild typically starts at a pair of Jacks or better, and the payouts increase for higher-ranked hands such as 3 of a kind, straight, flush, full house, four of a kind, straight flush, and a royal flush. The payout amount is based on the strength of the player’s final hand and the size of their initial bet.
