hey

we play with wildcards and got into a little dispute last night

if using wildcards (deuces and one eyed jacks) does a five of a kind beat a straight flush to the Ace?

Or is wildcard rules drawn up between the group you play with?

Thanks a lot!! Wink

Mattie,

That's an entertaining argument. As you know there's no such thing as Wildcards or 5 of a kind in the real game so it's whatever you made up.

Statistically speaking 5 of a kind is less likely than a straight flush in a wildcard game if that helps your argument!

i'm with you on this one, i think they use too many wild cards in the first place!! I think i'd be happy with one wild and a true deck.

Anyhoo, i'm just a beginner, but thanks for the response. I'm gonna start playing some free online games to get some practice Wink

Thanks

Mattie
