The game is played with a classic 52 card deck and no joker cards, and the hand rankings have their basics in the standard poker hand rankings. Once you have the cards, you can decide which ones you want to keep and which you want to discard and substitute for new cards out of the deck. In Deuces Wild video poker, you are dealt five cards at the start of every hand. If you have previously played Jacks or Better or some other variation of video poker, you probably know the very basic rules of Deuces Wild, too.
