No pair or made draw; Ac-Kc are two suited high cards, the best EV hold here (keeps royal/flush/straight potential plus pair upside).

No pair, flush draw, or 4-card straight; only one high card (Jack) is worth keeping, so discard the rest and redraw four.

No made hand or draw; keep the lone high card (King) and discard the rest for a fresh draw.

Four cards to a flush (As,8s,3s,6s) is a strong draw; discard the off-suit Tc to chase the flush, which has higher EV than any pair or straight draw here.

No made hand or draw; holding the two unsuited high cards (A,J) maximizes chances of forming a paying pair or better.

No pair or draw present; keep the unsuited Ace-King as the best high-card hold, discarding the three low cards to redraw for a pair or better.

No pair or draw present; standard strategy holds the single highest card (Ace) and draws four new cards.

No pair or draw; only one high card (Q) worth keeping, so discard the rest and redraw four fresh cards.

No made hand or four-card draw present; keep the two unsuited high cards K and J for jacks-or-better and inside-straight/royal potential, discard the rest.

Keep the Queen and Jack as unsuited high cards for jacks-or-better potential, discarding the rest to draw toward a pair or better.

No made hand or draw; keep the lone jack as the only card with potential pair value and discard the rest for a fresh draw.

Pair of aces is a paying hand; hold both aces and draw three new cards for shots at trips, full house, or quads.

Low pair of 5s is the best hold; no flush or straight draw present, so keep the pair and draw three new cards.

No pair or draw; keep both unsuited high cards (A,K) for the best chance at a paying pair or better.

Pair of 9s is a low pair; hold both and draw three new cards for a chance at three of a kind, two pair, or four of a kind.

Four cards to a flush (hearts) is a stronger draw than keeping the lone ace; discard the ace and draw one card for the flush.

Two pair (4s4h,3s3h) guarantees a win; discard the Th kicker and draw one card for a shot at a full house.

Holding A-K-Q-J (discarding the lone 2c) keeps a four-card straight draw where any ten completes a straight and any extra ace/king/queen/jack makes a paying high pair, giving higher EV than holding just three high cards.

Holding the unsuited high cards K and A (both pairable for Jacks-or-better payouts) has higher expected value than chasing a weak 3-card flush that only contains one scoring high card and offers no straight potential.

Four cards to a flush (Kh,6h,3h,Qh) is a strong draw worth more than keeping just the two high cards; discard the off-suit 4c.

Holding 9-T-J-Q gives an open-ended straight draw with 8 outs (8s and Ks), which outperforms keeping the lone ace or three unsuited high cards.

No pair or made hand; holding the lone Ace has higher EV than the inside straight draw (A-2-4-5 needing a 3), since single high-card holds outperform gutshot straights without additional outs.

No pair; holding the suited K-T keeps royal/flush/straight potential while discarding the low off-suit kicker and unrelated cards, which beats a 3-card flush or single high card by standard JoB EV ranking.

Four cards to a diamond flush (2d,Ad,3d,Qd) with the Js discarded; a 4-flush draw has strong EV in 9/6 jacks or better.

Hold the pair of 8s and draw three new cards; low pair is the best paying option available here.

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

Low pair of 4s has solid EV from three-of-a-kind/quad/full-house draws, better than any single high card hold.

Pair of 7s is the only made hand; hold both 7s and draw three new cards for best EV toward trips/quads/full house.

Low pair of 2s is the best EV hold; keep both deuces and draw three new cards hoping to improve to three of a kind or better.

Pair of Kings is the best made hand; hold both kings and draw three new cards for shots at trips, full house, or four of a kind.

Holding the three clubs (7c,Tc,3c) gives a flush draw, which has higher EV than keeping an unsuited Qd or single high card.

No pair or draw; only one high card (Js) is worth keeping per standard jacks-or-better strategy.

Low pair of twos is kept for three-of-a-kind draws, outperforming holding a lone ace.

No pair, no made hand, no four-card flush or straight draw, and no high cards (J+) to hold; best EV is to discard all five and draw fresh.

Two pair (jacks and twos) already guarantees a payout; holding both pairs and discarding the kicker maximizes chances of improving to a full house or quads while locking in the two-pair win.

Four cards to a flush (Th,7h,Qh,3h) is a stronger hold than keeping the lone King; drawing one more heart completes a 30-credit flush with decent odds.

Pair of Kings is a made paying hand; discard the rest to draw three new cards for a chance at trips, full house, or quads.

No pair or draw present; only the jack can form a paying pair, so hold the lone jack and draw four new cards.
