Action timeline
Model's stated reason
Queen is the only paying high card; a low 3-flush (2-3-9 diamonds) returns about 0.34 per credit versus roughly 0.47 for drawing four to the queen, so hold the queen alone.
Model's stated reason
Holding the three tens is the clear optimal play; drawing two cards maximizes the chance of improving to a full house or four of a kind.
Model's stated reason
Hold only the pair of queens. A high pair is already a paying hand, and discarding the ace kicker maximizes draws to trips, full house, and quads.
Model's stated reason
Low pair of threes with no four-flush or straight-flush draw. Standard 9/6 Jacks or Better strategy is to hold only the pair and draw three.
Model's stated reason
Low pair of threes is the only paying seed; hold just the pair and draw three cards to maximize improvement chances.
Model's stated reason
Low pair of sixes is the only paying seed; no four-flush, straight, or straight-flush draw, so keep both sixes and draw three.
Model's stated reason
No pair or draw; Jh and Tc are unsuited, so only the jack is worth keeping in 9/6 Jacks or Better.
Model's stated reason
Low pair of fives outranks the unsuited ace-jack; hold only the pair and draw three.
Model's stated reason
Hold the suited king and queen; they are the only paying cards and the best draw. Discard the ten, three, and eight.
Model's stated reason
Holding the unsuited king and jack is the highest-EV option; the other cards form no paying pair or useful draw.
Model's stated reason
Hold the pair of fours and discard the rest. A low pair outranks two unsuited high-card kickers in 9/6 Jacks or Better.
Model's stated reason
Pair of tens is the only made value; low pairs are held in Jacks or Better because three-card draws to trips, two pair, full house, and quads beat breaking the pair.
Model's stated reason
No pair, flush, or straight draw. Holding the queen alone is the highest-EV play, since only jacks or better pay and the ten adds no useful draw.
Model's stated reason
Hold the low pair of threes and discard the rest; it has higher expected value than any high-card or mixed hold.
Model's stated reason
Hold the pair of kings and discard the three kickers; a high pair is the best made hand and drawing three maximizes expected return.
Model's stated reason
Hold the pair of aces, which already pays jacks or better, and discard the three unmatched cards to draw for three of a kind or better.
Model's stated reason
A lone king returns more than the four-card inside straight (only four outs), so discard the low cards and keep the king.
