No pair or draw; hold the two unsuited high cards (Q,K) for the best chance at jacks-or-better while keeping royal potential minimal since not suited.

Four-card flush draw (Qh,9h,Kh,3h) outranks the low pair of 9s in optimal strategy; discard the 9d to chase the flush.

Pair of tens is the strongest holding; discard the rest to draw toward three of a kind, full house, or four of a kind while keeping the pair for a guaranteed low-pair fallback.

Low pair of 7s has higher EV than a 3-card flush draw; hold the pair and draw three new cards.

Pair of 7s outranks a mere three-card flush draw in EV; keep the low pair and draw three new cards.

Low pair of 2s is the strongest kept value; holding just the pair maximizes EV over other options like a lone jack.

Three aces dealt; hold the trips and draw two new cards for a shot at four of a kind or full house.

Pair of Kings is the only made hand; holding just the pair and drawing three new cards maximizes chances of improving to trips, two pair, or better.

Low pair of 5s has higher EV than holding scattered high cards with no flush/straight draw; keep the pair and draw three.

Two pair (KK and 55) is a made hand; hold both pairs and discard the Qd kicker to draw for a full house or better while locking in two pair value.

Four cards to an open-ended straight (T-J-Q-K) is a stronger hold than any three-high-card combo; discard the 5h and draw for a 9 or Ace.

No pair or draw present; the lone Ace is the only card with holding value per optimal jacks-or-better strategy.

No pair or flush/straight draw present; keep the two highest cards (K,Q) for the best chance at a paying pair while retaining upside for a straight.

No pair or draw present; holding the lone King alone maximizes expected value per standard jacks-or-better strategy.

Two pair (Aces and 4s) already guarantees a payout; hold both pairs and draw one card for a chance at a full house.

No pair or flush draw; the only value is the King high card, so hold it and draw four new cards for the best expected return.

Low pair of 2s is the strongest holding; keep the pair and draw three new cards for a shot at trips or better.

Two pair (7s7d, QcQd) is a made hand; hold both pairs and draw one card for a chance at a full house.

No made hand or draw; keep the two high cards (T,Q) for a shot at a pair of jacks-or-better, discard the rest.

Pair of 9s is the only made value; hold both 9s and draw three new cards to chase trips/quads/full house.

Low pair of 5s is the only made hand; holding it and drawing three new cards maximizes EV over hoping for a random flush/straight draw with mismatched suits.

No pair or four-card draw; holding the suited A-K (spades) gives the strongest remaining equity via royal/flush/straight/high-pair possibilities.

Only one high card (Ace) with no pair, flush, or straight draw; standard strategy is to hold the lone Ace and draw four new cards.

No pair, no straight or flush draw, and the only high card is a ten which can't make a paying pair by itself; discard all five for a fresh draw.

No made hand or draw; keep the two unpaired high cards (J,K) for pair/two-pair upside and discard the rest.

Four cards to a flush (9s,Ks,Js,3s) is a strong draw worth holding over the weak inside straight possibility; discard the Th.

No made hand or draw; only a lone King has value, so hold it and draw four new cards for a shot at a pair or better.

Three clubs (K-T-7) give a flush draw with two live cards, which outranks holding just the unsuited K-Q high cards in optimal 9/6 Jacks or Better strategy.

Pair of 2s outranks the scattered high cards and the weak 3-card flush draw; hold the pair and draw three.

Pair of queens is a made paying hand; discard the other three to draw for trips, full house, or quads while keeping the guaranteed jacks-or-better payout.

Pair of tens is the only made hand; hold the pair and draw three new cards for best expected value.

Cards are 5-6-7-8-9, already a made straight paying 20 credits; hold all five.

No pair or draw; keep the two unsuited high cards (Q,K) for jacks-or-better upside and discard the rest.

No pair, no four-card flush or straight draw exists; the lone Ace is the highest-EV hold among single high cards, beating the three-card heart flush draw or unsuited high-card pairs.

Low pair of 3s has higher EV than holding scattered high cards with no flush or straight draw, so hold the pair and draw three new cards.

Pair of 5s (low pair) has higher expected value than the gutshot straight draw (5-6-8-9 needing a 7), so keep the pair and draw three new cards.

No made hand or draw; keep the two high cards (J,K) for jacks-or-better shot and discard the rest.

No pair, no four-card straight or flush; keep the lone jack as the only high card with pay potential.

Jc and Tc are two suited high cards toward a royal flush, offering strong straight/flush/royal potential; the rest are low junk to discard.
