Action timeline

Model's stated reason

Holding the queen gives the best chance for a high pair or better; the other cards are low and not part of a strong draw.

Model's stated reason

Holding the three tens guarantees three of a kind and preserves the best draws to a full house or four of a kind; discarding the ace and king is the optimal play.

Model's stated reason

Holding the two pair (aces and fours) guarantees a 10-credit payout and gives 4 outs to improve to a full house, which maximizes expected value.

Model's stated reason

Holding the two high cards (J and K) maximizes expected value by giving the best chances for a high pair or better, which is the optimal play in Jacks or Better.

Model's stated reason

No high cards, pairs, or promising draws; discarding all maximizes expected value.

Model's stated reason

Holding the pair of sixes gives the best chance to improve to three of a kind, two pair, a full house, or four of a kind. Discarding the other three cards maximizes expected value.

Model's stated reason

Holding the two high cards (J and K) is optimal; no flush or straight draw exists and they offer the best chance for jacks or better.

Model's stated reason

Holding the suited T-J gives the best chance for a royal flush, straight flush, flush, straight, or high pair, which maximizes expected value.

Model's stated reason

Holding the pair of fives gives the best expected value, as it has many chances to improve to trips, two pair, full house, or quads. Discarding the unsuited high cards is correct in this spot.

Model's stated reason

The best play is to hold the two suited high cards, king and queen of spades, because this preserves the strongest chances for high pairs, straights, flushes, and a royal flush.

Model's stated reason

Holding the pair of tens guarantees a payout and offers the best expected value in Jacks or Better.

Model's stated reason

Holding the pair of twos gives the best expected value, as it can improve to trips, two pair, full house, or quads. Discarding the unrelated queen, six, and seven maximizes the draw potential.

Model's stated reason

Keep the only high card, the queen, and draw four to maximize expected value; there are no promising flush or straight draws available.

Model's stated reason

Holding the three diamonds gives a flush draw, which is the best play with no high cards or pairs.

Model's stated reason

Holding the pair of kings guarantees a paying hand and offers the best expected value with draws to two pair, trips, full house, or four of a kind.

Model's stated reason

Holding the pair of 9s is the optimal play because it maximizes expected value by preserving chances for trips, two pair, full house, or quads.
