Thanks, Bob. I misspoke in my original post. We're staying at Rio, but playing full-pay at Gold Coast (and Palms).
The DBDW strategy that I'm using (based on my old Frugal VP software) says with a deuce and an ace and nothing better -- e.g. 2 Ah Qs 7c 3d -- to hold the ace and deuce, not the deuce alone. This situation is coming up quite frequently, so my post was to confirm that I'm playing this correctly, or at least close enough for a simple strategy that doesn't consider penalty cards.
